A very touching advertisement

I know many people find it annoyed to watch the advertisements. However, lately there is a very touching advertisement here. An old man who has parkinsonism, so he has forgotten many things. He can't even take care of himself. It gives his son many troubles. One day they have dinner with others in a restaurant. At that time this old man put two dumplings into his pocket. At that time his son felt embarrassed. This old man murmured:"Dumplings are my son's favorite." He has forgotten everything, but he has never forgotten to love you. My tears dropped.

Hi there ! I haven't seen this yet ! Parents love is forever . They may forget so many things even everything but the love to his children is buried in his heart. Pure love can never be forgotten , it will live forever.

It is common for parents to love us but it may not be the same for us to love them back.

It is quite obvious he hasn't yet forgotten about everything in his life, he can still remember how to love his son, even though he forgot that his son is sitting next to him. It is quite true that our parent will never forget about loving us no matter how sad their situation can be due to old age with diseases. His son has no reason to feel embarrassed by his father's Parkinson disease and Alzheimer at all, his father still love him very dearly despite of his disease.

I am so touched. It is really sad when our love ones have this health issues. It really challenge our patience. No matter what, they always love us. They did not know that they have forgotten how to manage their daily activities, but their love and sweet memories struggle to hold on till the end. That's how great a parent's love! There is quite a number of movies on dementia too in South Korea and Singapore. I normally do shed my tears even though there are some enlighten and comical scenes.

That is very touching, many don't consider the disease, and how it takes over the person. Just how it;s embarassing to them.

Hopefully one day there can be a cure for this disease. It is easy to take care of a patient for a short time, but it is very difficult to do the same for a long time everyday.
