This is not a rare disease, so there is no need for the director to do popular science, so the film mainly talks about the word love that the heroine said with difficulty at the end.
This is a very happy family. The heroine and husband are both highly knowledgeable, and their children are talented. Only the youngest daughter just doesn't want to go to college, and there is nothing outrageous and naughty. There is nothing wrong with having her own pursuit and working hard for it.
a few details
When the heroine was diagnosed with her own disease, the main concern was whether the children had inherited the disease. After the eldest daughter said on the phone that she had the diseased gene, the heroine felt guilty and said a few words of sorry. The eldest daughter was obviously a little resentful. Yes, it hurts to hear that.
When the heroine's illness is still in its early stages, family gatherings prepare meals for everyone. No one treats the heroine as a patient. Only the youngest daughter takes the trouble to answer her mother's questions, help prepare together, chat with her mother about herself, and ask about her mother's condition. What does it feel like to have that disease in your mother?
The eldest daughter gave birth to a baby, and the husband asked the heroine to go to the hospital together. The heroine said that he wanted to wear the green one, but the husband didn't care about the heroine's taste and preferences, so he took the clothes and helped the heroine put it on quickly.
The eldest daughter gave birth to a baby. As a grandmother, the heroine happily wanted to hug, but the family reluctantly agreed after discussion. Does anyone know the stage of the heroine's illness and possible dangers? Can't even hold a child? Just imagine that the heroine also loved her child so carefully and took good care of her back then, but the attitude of the cherished child towards her mother after having a child at this time is quite disappointing.
The heroine fell asleep, and the husband and two children were discussing how to allocate and take care of the heroine. Everyone was like discussing an object, and no one cared and asked about the heroine's feelings and thoughts. By the way, I scolded the little daughter again and felt that the little daughter was the most unconscionable and did not come to participate in the discussion about how her mother handled things.
This little daughter, who didn't participate in the discussion about how to deal with her mother, was chatting with her mother about the video. Knowing that her mother was at home alone, she was worried when she was not even watching each other.
When the husband took the heroine to eat ice cream, the heroine was already in the middle stage of her illness, and she seemed uneasy and dependent. The hero asked her if she wanted to leave here. Finish. The male protagonist did not explain and consulted the female protagonist again.
The husband finally decided to pursue his career and life. He did not bring his sick wife as he said before. The younger daughter was worried when she knew that her mother had no relatives by her side, (not that no one took care of the heroine, You can find 24-hour care.) Choose to come back to protect my mother,
The little daughter took her mother for a walk and read to her mother. I really don’t know what I was talking about. She probably liked to read it many times because it was memorized rather than read out. I asked my mother Do you like it? What does it say? (The heroine was in the middle and late stages of the disease and could no longer speak normally.) The heroine answered her daughter's "love" with difficulty. The heroine's sluggish eyes due to illness are no longer wise and calm, and there is light in the eyes of the youngest daughter. The same light is also in the eyes of the youngest daughter, um, um, love. Impressed here. It also shows that the loss of the body does not mean the loss of mental feelings and the ability to experience love...
After being diagnosed, the heroine obviously did enough homework to understand the situation of this disease, so she recorded a video for herself teaching herself to commit suicide in advance.
She repeatedly asked her husband to take a year off to accompany her, (which is really not excessive), because she knew that this year she could still take care of herself and think about herself. She wanted to be with the closest person who had been with her for decades People get along well for a year without work and busyness, children to take care of, and messy things, because this may be the only year in the future when you can clearly know love and love, but the husband is not willing...
So if the world is about to lose to a person, isn't love the most important thing? Isn't love the only thing worth slowing down and feeling with our hearts?
I feel that this disease is a bit like a child who lives upside down and gradually loses his language ability and behavioral ability, but the children who grow up cannot give love like the love they received when they were young.
Re-examined my relationship with my parents, husband and children. After rethinking love, I deeply feel that others say love is companionship, yes. Companion is not only physical companionship, but also companionship.
