This is the truth of this and other illness. This is sadness, love , and humanity. I pray China and the world to battle this quickly and compassionately, and with strength.

Heartbreaking! She is in angonal breathing and he is coming to terms she isn’t likely going to survive. No matter what language is spoken the tone and the expressions are the same when one questioning and perhaps coming to realize their love may not live.
