The love that breathes because of you

That year, he fell in love with her at first sight, and they fell in love with each other and got married. He thought he would have a good and smooth life from now on, but the sudden polio has turned him into a severely paralyzed patient who can only move above the neck.

In the 1960s, there were no wheelchairs in the UK, and paralyzed patients could only lie in the hospital all their lives on respirator and wait to die... Young and beautiful, she went to see him with her newborn baby in her arms. He only said: let me die.

She said: You must not die, you must live.

So he chose to live, and they moved the respirator to the home despite the doctor's objection. Later, he wanted to go out and have a look, so he asked a friend to help him build the world's first wheelchair with a respirator... Then he wanted to take a car, and then a plane... The wheelchair is also constantly improving.

His life is more wonderful than normal people, because of her. She was his breath, his hope.

Maybe life encounters love, encounters heartbeat, not uncommon.

The most precious thing is to meet the person who is absolutely necessary for you, living in the worst time, as long as you are with him, you can become happy...

Breathe quotes

  • Dr. Entwistle: No one with your husband's degree of disability anywhere in the world exists outside a hospital.

  • Diana Cavendish: Dr Khan. Robin and I, we wanted to ask you a question. Didn't we, Robin? Can machines like that ventilator only work in hospitals?

    Dr. Khan: Well, it's just a machine, you know. You plug it in and it goes. Why do you ask?

    Diana Cavendish: Robin's going to leave the hospital.

    Dr. Khan: Do you have any idea of the risk?

    Diana Cavendish: Yes, yes I do. The risk is that he might die.

    Diana Cavendish: [turns toward Robin]

    Diana Cavendish: Robin...

    Robin Cavendish: I either go on living here or leave here and possibly die.

    Diana Cavendish: Yes.

    Robin Cavendish: Well, what are we waiting for?
