“The reason I could live a meaningful life despite suffering from Parkinson’s disease for 22 years”
– Things I Wish I Had Known Before My Decline

Now, if there is one regret you have in life, it is that you pushed yourself too hard to live your life uncomfortably. Whether as a doctor, a wife, or a mother, I blamed myself harshly for everything. But looking back, I realize that I only focused on survival and didn't enjoy the small pleasures of life. I wanted to live a life that healed the scars in my head. I wasn’t really living well. The world without me would have been much quieter. I left behind a lot of memories in 2014 that I can’t forget, and many good memories vanished. However, those who guided me along the way stayed close. I hope I never regret because regret only makes the heart heavier. Don’t blame yourself too much and don’t be too harsh. It’s more fun to live with that in mind.”
