《Finally couldn't hold on, even the strong have fallen》
When a family can't find harmony, it seems like disasters are about to begin, with internal and external troubles arriving together.
Internally, the son has grown into a man, and his physiological reactions, like erections, lead him to rub against Lillian and bite her, as if to release his urges. Out of compassion, Lillian reluctantly had her son neutered. The bruises and bite marks on her body can't fully convey her son's suffering.
Externally, the brothers have abandoned their mother. When she falls ill and is hospitalized, no one steps in to help, and no one inquires about any matters big or small.
Burning the candle at both ends, combined with her mother's harsh words, Lillian is overwhelmed with worry and stress. Anger and frustration leave her gritting her teeth. During the three-year period between foreign labor contracts, Lillian is constantly busy. When her mother catches a cold and needs hospitalization, someone must stay to care for her. Among the brothers, everyone has their excuses. With no one to turn to for help and drained from the internal struggle, Lillian falls ill.
In a hospital room with two beds, the rift between Lillian and her mother remains unresolvable, with grievances on both sides. The mother fears abandonment, while Lillian truly lacks the strength to take on her mother's final journey.
As for the intellectually disabled child at home, Smith must still be relied upon for care. Lillian is powerless to intervene in whatever might happen next. Even giants and strong people have their vulnerabilities.
Lillian's mental state began to deteriorate. She regretted the birth of her son. Compassion for her mother's plight left her feeling torn in every direction. She despised her heartless and indifferent brothers, comparing them to beasts. Her greatest misfortune was having to rely on Smith.
Barely recognizable, Lillian couldn't eat or sleep, her face dark, thin, and sunken, her body trembling on the verge of collapse. The doctor suggested she see a psychiatrist, which made Lillian angry. She incessantly recounted her hardships, emphasizing the lack of time and the importance of her family responsibilities. Her torrent of words was overwhelming. The doctor remained silent, giving her a book on depression to read at home, advising her to finish it before arranging an outpatient appointment.
She had long suppressed hidden secrets, maintaining her dignity. With resilience and perseverance, she pushed forward without ever relaxing. The road ahead still required her to care for her intellectually disabled child. Her journey, filled with hardship, showcased her military-like discipline. The realities of life can truly change a person.
