White-haired wife taking care of her sick husband alone
“I will take responsibility until the day I die. “I have to hold you until my hands and feet move.” -her wife
“Thank you. I can’t do well on my own. She doesn’t even know how to boil water… Her wife isn’t feeling well either. “I force myself to do it for myself.” – husband
A rural village in Naju. Yang Yang-sun (86 years old), who lives in an old house at the end of an alley, starts her day by lighting a fire in her furnace. The reason she boils a large pot of water is to prepare bath water for her grandfather, her husband Ryu Jung-dam (89 years old). Her grandfather suffers from hemiplegia as a result of a stroke. It is difficult for her to carry out her daily life on her own, so she needs help from her wife, from washing to dressing. Because her body didn’t listen to her, she suffered three falls in her home last year. She is her grandmother who takes great care of her husband. With her curved back, she plants cabbage, her husband’s favorite plant, in the spring, and takes the bus to her city to buy medicine and snacks for her husband. Her grandmother’s wish was that her husband would no longer be sick and that she would be with her until the end of her life.
Two misfortunes befell an old couple
“This heart breaks. I’m sorry and I’m sorry. “(In the past) I would go to the hospital and take care of him, but now I can’t even do that and just give him medicine.” -her wife
The grandfather and grandmother, who got married at the tender age of 22, have been living together for over 60 years. We met for the first time through the introduction of village elders, and although we did not have a lot of money, we lived a simple life. Then, 25 years ago, a trial came to her couple. Her husband suddenly collapsed from a stroke. Since then, Grandmother Yang Sun has taken care of her family by working as a hired hand, working as a housewife, etc. in place of her husband, who was unable to work due to hemiplegia due to the aftereffects of his stroke. Although her body was uncomfortable, she was able to endure these difficult years because she had a caring husband. But five years ago, she suffered another misfortune that befell the elderly couple. Dementia came to both of them.
“Please give your love to the elderly couple so they don’t lose hope.”
“Don’t get sick, just stay healthy anyway. “Until the day I move, I won’t leave you in your nursing home, so let’s just live as is and stay together until the day we move.” -her wife
Fortunately, unlike the grandmother diagnosed with mild dementia, the grandfather suffering from severe dementia is progressing quickly and his symptoms have been rapidly worsening over the past two years. Moreover, her hemiplegia is getting worse, making her life more and more uncomfortable. However, she recently received shocking news from the Dementia Counseling Center… Her grandmother’s cognitive ability has decreased significantly, making it highly likely that she will develop severe dementia. She was worried that she would not be able to take care of her husband when she received unexpected test results…
Grandma is worried. She is a white-haired wife who carefully takes care of her husband, who is gradually losing his memory and health. She asks for your interest and love so that the elderly couple can live the rest of their lives more comfortably and safely.
The story of a grandmother who takes care of her sick husband alone is told in the episode ‘Only You Until My Last Breath’, which airs on EBS 1TV at 11:25 a.m. on Saturday, March 23, 2024.
