What would you do if you were suddenly paralyzed by polio in your best years, paralyzed, and spent the rest of your life in bed? This was my curiosity when I first watched this film, and even a little unbearable. Because I was too eager to know how Robin lived and how Robin realized the meaning of life, I watched Robin without hesitation. s story.
A match made in heaven, handsome boy and beautiful girl. Robin is cheerful and adventurous. During a baseball game, Robin met the beautiful girl Diana. Robin launches a violent attack on Diana, and the two fall in love. Diana was pampered since she was a child, and Robin's family was average. Diana's parents did not agree with the marriage, but Diana had made up her mind. Robin and Diana came to Africa, and the two started a romantic journey, partying together, climbing mountains together, taking pictures together, and going for a ride together. Meanwhile, Diana became pregnant.
Polio, paralyzed in bed for life. Robin and his friend Colin played tennis together, and the friends had a good time together. On the night after the game, Robin was sore and weak, and his complexion was extremely bad. Colin took Robin to the hospital overnight. When Diana went to the hospital the next day, Robin was already slumped in bed. Diana learned that her husband, Robin, was suffering from polio, which took away all of Robin's mobility, and even had to rely on a ventilator to breathe. The doctor is not optimistic about Robin, thinking that Robin has only 3 months to live.
Go home from the hospital decisively. Robin is completely incapacitated, which means that he can only live in bed for the rest of his life. What a tragic thing this is. At the beginning, Robin had a strong desire to die, and he wanted to die. I think, in his eyes, at that time, he was a complete waste, not only unable to help his wife, but also a burden to them. Diana was a great woman with an unabashed love for her husband, an unparalleled deep love. That kind of love, hot, strong, deep. Diana persuaded Robin to try to live and to live. Robin agreed. At great risk, Diana took Robin home and took good care of her. Robin is not only not dead, but living better and better.
Robin is in Africa. With the help of a friend, an electric wheelchair tailored for Robin was made. Robin can stay out of the room and go out to participate in various activities. Diana took Robin and son Jonathan to Africa to relive the trip to Africa that year. In the converted car, Robin sits in the front with his son in his arms. The family had a great time.
Robin is in Spain. Robin decided to go to Spain and the family put the car on the plane. In 1971, they came to Africa. On the way to the town, the socket of Robin's wheelchair burned out, and Robin had to rely on Diana's manual ventilator to breathe. The Robin family met good people here and met a lot of friends. We all gathered here together, singing and eating delicious food until Robin's friend came and fixed the electric wheelchair. Unforgettable trip to Spain.
Robin is in Germany. Robin and Diana are looking for investors, hoping to mass-produce electric wheelchairs to help more patients with serious diseases. Robin did it. They traveled to Germany to learn about how Germany cares for critically ill, unable to walk patients. At a conference on how to manage the lives of severely disabled patients, Robin was invited by a friend to speak. Robin hopes that patients can come out rather than be put in the hospital, and patients have their own freedom. Doctors want to give back to their patients the ability to be free. Seeing this, my heart was touched for a long time.
Robin chose to end his life. By the end of Robin's life, things were getting worse for Robin. Robin was ready to leave. To this end, Robin tried to convince his friends to help him end his life, to convince Diana and Jonathan. When they said goodbye to Robin at the end, their lifelong love also drew a perfect ending. As they themselves put it, "each other becomes each other's life".
Inspiration from Robin's story:
Revelation 1: Never give up. A person should never give up on himself, as long as your brain is alive, as long as you are thinking, you cannot give up on yourself. Robin's story is a huge inspiration for me.
Revelation 2: Find the love of your life. The love between Robin and Diana was great, and Diana was a beautiful and great woman.
Revelation 3: Pursue the meaning of life. In any case, we have to find a way to realize the value of our life. Even in a wheelchair, Robin is constantly trying different possibilities.
