100%

Like you can read in the description this drama is based on the true story of the young girl Aya Kito. She suddenly learns that she has an incourable disease called Spinocerebellar Degeneration, which affects her nervous system so that she gradually cannot control her body movements anymore, such as walking, speech and her ability to eat. Eventually this disease leads to death.

This drama portrays the slowly progressing disease with all its individual stages and their effect on Aya’s life as well as the lives of the people surrounding her incredibly detailed. You can really fell the pain she has to endure where at the same time Aya’s determination not to give up definitely is impressive.

This comes also from the fact that the real Aya’s words, poems and pictuers are included in the drama. You can feel her strength in these words and are touched by her fate.

After watching this unique story you really feel glad to be healthy and alive. It is a masterpiece of a tragic drama, beautifully implemented, that will make you cry, it is - without a doubt - worth watching..
