"one liter of tears"  email this discussion to a friend?

In current days, I watched a Japanese TV-play called "one liter of tears" which told us a moving story about a Japanese girl who suffered from an unordinary disease. When she was 15 years old, this disease named as "Friedreich ataxia" caught her. This TV-play showed how the girl's families and friends help her to struggle against the serious illness. I was really moved by the love among human-beings in this TV-play.By the way, this TV-play was adapted from a novel and the novel was adapted from a notebook of a girl who suffered from this disease in real life. So I recommend this TV-play to mylotters.
The prime symptom of this disease include easy to fall down, unable to walk naturally. Then inability to control their four limbs of the body, unable to write and speak naturally. Finally, people may die from many complicating diseases. The worst of it is that this disease not affects what people think but what people do. People can not perform rightly according to what they really want to. For these reasons, it's difficult for these patients to communicate with other people.So I hope people can pay more attention to your health and be thoughtful for the patients.

I've watched that TV series, too, here in the Philippines. That's a really sad story. The disease is also called spinocerebellar degeneration, and it's terrible because your body parts lose their function. In her case she bore the disease for almost a decade.

This disease needs attention and awareness DESERATELY. My friend Simon is 26 and has dealt with it since 18. His muscles are wasting away by the day, he used to walk. Then he had a wheelchair,now he can't move his arms and needs help to do everything. Eventually FA will take his heart, because the heart is a muscle too. It's hard to watch somebody as charasmatic and happy as my friend lose himself to something so close to a cure. This disease needs attention desperately, because it may be rare, but when it happens, oh god, it happens.

Hi ritaliu!^^

I was able to watch some episodes of this series. But I wasn't able to finish it because I didn't like the dubbing. It was dubbed in our native language. It kind of ruined the drama. Well, that's just for me. I would have preferred to watch it with Japanese audio and English subtitles. I could have downloaded it from the internet but I did not because I lost interest because of the not-so-nice dubbing. And I didn't know the actors too. That added to my fading interest.

But it sounds like that the illness is very scary to have. I didn't know that the drama was based on real life. It must have been so sad. Well, in times like this, a person really need all the support he/she can get. Did the girl died there?

Yes, she died but she lived longer than the normal people who had suffered from this disease. She died from the complications of this disease.
thank you for your posting!

Oh she died? That's just so sad. I'm sure I would have shed a liter of tears too if I was able to watched that show.^^
