This sad story Beginning with beautiful love

Jee is a young woman, singer, singing a clear voice. Gentle and charming. “Shino” her husband isnewsThe kind -hearted young man both fell deeply in love. And had dreamed of the wedding day, the bells of the church will be louder during the ceremony

But then, before the wedding day, not long at the age of 25, Chie was diagnosed with breast cancer. And need to have all the left breast surgery

However, Shinko didn’t hesitate. He still chose to walk beside the lover. He held Jee’s hand and said

“When to leave the hospital? Let’s go to Canada. There are very beautiful there. After seeing the great Rocky mountain range These stories will look a little small, but first of all, let’s get married. “

Their love may not be noticeable. But it is sincere and stable enough to support Jee to have the power to face death.

She fought bravely. And responding to treatment well until in 2001, her symptoms began to be stable, but the side effects of drugs Causing the doctor to report that the chances of her pregnancy are almost impossible

But life is full of miracles One day, Jee returned unexpectedly pregnant. Congratulations mixed with concerns Because pregnancy will increase the female hormones in the body Which may stimulate the cancer cells to return again

Nonetheless, a little life that is growing in her womb Instead, Jee has enormous power.

In 2003, she gave birth to a beautiful daughter. Soft like a petals And named her “Hana” which means “flower” with the hope that This child will grow up to be loved by everyone.

“To meet the child is the evidence that I have lived in this world. This child is more valuable than my own life. You are the most precious treasure in my life, “Ji said gently.

When he saw her husband tears flowing with joy on the day that his daughter opened his eyes to see the world. Chi is confident that The happiness that she had dreamed of Just reach

Throughout the period of pregnancy and raising children to the age of 8 months, Je’s health is still good. Both believe that Hana is a gift of hope that God has given them.

Want to have a good life Must eat good food And if eating well Must learn to cook intentionally

But when life seems to be complete Instead faced with the storm wave again When Hana was only 9 months old, the cancer returned to attack Chi violently. This time, cancer spread throughout the body. Until she almost had no energy to hold the child

She cried, apologizing to her daughter with tears. “Mom, sorry. Mom is very sick. I can’t hold me anymore …”

Hana girl seems to understand the mother’s words. Since then, she didn’t ask the mother to hold it again.

When it is inevitable that “From the daughter to” Chie began to think that “How to allow the daughter to stay well, even without a mother?”

During treatment She takes care of herself by eating healthy food. Focus on brown rice and miso soup To enhance immunity

And that gave her a decisive decision “Because food is the key of life I have to teach children to cook and housework. Even if I’m not by your side Just ask for a strong child Know how to take care of yourself Will live anywhere “

On the 4th birthday of Hana 2007, the mother bounced the tiny apron. The father gave a small kitchen set.

The first time he saw the ball holding a knife Jee felt frightened but tried not to help. For children to practice independence

When Hana made a mistake Jee didn’t blame, but gradually finding the cause and encouraged her children to try many times because she knew that Teaching what children do The most important thing is not to control. Allowing children to feel and do it by themselves

Chi began to teach children to make the easiest menu. That is the miso soup. Things to do are just squeezing, cutting, cutting tofu, dried fish, Hana, must climb up the chair to reach the stove. But with the patience of the mother She can complete the miso soup.

Both the mother and child have made a contract, “From now on, the miso soup in the house is Hanna’s skill.”

Since then Scooping a miso soup every day became an important mission of a 4 year old girl.

“If the mother is not here, if the parents are very sad Therefore, I have to eat good food, want to eat good food, must know how to cook well, whether cooking or eating. Must do intentionally “

Even though it’s still small, Hana understands this basic thing that “If wanting to have a good life Must eat good food first. “

After that, the mother taught her to do housework appropriately, such as washing clothes, drying clothes and vacuuming.

“I have no money, no rights, no assets at all. I can only teach my children to cook, do housework and live a good life every day to even be alone. Children can live well. “

My own life We must know to protect ourselves.

Jee couldn’t extend his life. Therefore chose to teach the child to be ready before the time that has to leave

When he saw his daughter cooking expertly She trusted and passed away in 2008, when Hana was 5 years old, Jeie died at the age of 33 years.

The sound of the church bell rang last time. Send her to heaven When the bells were married She felt lucky to meet her beloved husband. And when the sound of the bells rang She passed away without regret. Because there is a side beside

After the mother passed away, Hana still maintains the habit of making the miso soup himself every morning. “Every morning, I eat brown rice and miso soup. I will not get a cold, not sick, my life will protect myself. That is my promise and mother. “

Life without mother But Hana still organized his life neatly and relying on himself well.

• Practice playing piano
• Go to school by yourself, do housework and prepare dinner

When the father worked over late Hana didn’t forget to prepare dinner for his father. Ready to attach a cute small note, “Father, don’t forget to read before eating! This is my father’s belongings. Hana made his father. “

Self -care And take care of his father too Is the teachings that her mother has always left for her

When he was in grade 4, Hana has experienced 6 years of experience in the kitchen, becoming the “star of the lunch” of the rice box that she made herself. “Mom’s taste”

In the notebook, Hana wrote to the mother, “Mom, I can cook all the boxes. Will my mother be surprised? My cool menu is curry with chicken curry and pork stir -fried potato. “

She has not forgotten to tell the story of both happiness and suffering that “Even if encountering frustrating or tired things Have to find a solution, the mother often says, “Try to change the view”, although difficult, but I will try I won’t cry anymore. “

Even once he had a tears, looking at the mother’s picture and asked “Why do you have to leave me? Why did you leave me alone? “But Hana never forgot the mother’s teachings that “Do not speak badly about others. And don’t forget to smile. “
