| I had the chance to watch "1 litre of Tears", yes and it changed my life completely....
about a young girl named Aya, after reading about her I had found out, that "1 litre of tears" what a Japanese drama, based on the life of a young girl named "Aya" (Kito in real life, Ikeuchi in the series), who at the age of 14, was diagnosed with Spinocerebellar Ataxia, a genetic disorder, with no cure. The disease, effects the body's nervous system. Slowly, the person with the disease, will not be able to walk, she will have trouble talking, eating, writing etc... In this case, it is Aya, a young promising Highschool Student, who has a promising future ahead of her in both Physically and Mentally.
Every night, Aya writes into a diary, which her doctor suggested to her, as a form to keep status of her mentally and physically, Although, the diary's become more of a way for Aya to cope with her disease. The story is held together, through Aya, telling the stories from her diary's. Throughout this passionate and emotional journey, I have learnt alot about life, and, have changed a little inside.
Ayas story, truly touched my heart, and her life, has Inspired me, and Influenced me to "Live on, and Never give up", aswell as make me regret actions I have chosen in the past.
During the first Episode, I thought of this series, to be more of in my words "another sappy love story", but instead, I ended up, crying, through most of the episodes, and I felt so sorry for Aya, and the people around her.
The story, does have a sort of "Love" theme inside it, as Aya falls in love with a boy named Haruto, who sits through Ayas disease side by side, and never gave up. But, this "Love" isn't your typical television love, and, you will feel engrossed into it, as each episode passes.
Anyway, thats enough for an Introduction.
Aya, was a wonderfull, strong caring girl, who never gave up not even at the end. Although she cried at least "1 litre of tears", she still edher strong will to live her live to the most she can, even though she ew, that wouldn't be long.
Through, surviving a regular school life, to finding love, She did not give up, even when things look there worst.
And, even as I type this out, a single tear still manages to run down my cheek.
I am sorry that someone, as pure and nice as you, Aya, had to leave us, but even though you were taken from us, is such a cruel way, you left behind with us, the greatest gift of all, Hope.
Rest in Peace... Aya Kito
