i took a break from PW and just sat down on the dining table eating my lunch. On the teevee a 12pm show on HBO started showing.
AWAKENING.
it was a 1990 movie and i thought i wont be at least interested but ever since i set my eyes on the beginning i could not take my eyes off till the end. cos every single single single scene is just so moving.
its about catatonic patients (people who are alive but unconscious) and a doctor who fights to save them. He was able to revive them and they get to enjoy life but it was only for a period of time when the medicine he based on lost its effect on them and one by one they went back to their original state.
and it was based on a true story.
and it makes me think how many people have not cherished life given to them when there are those who are fighting in hope just for a moment of life.
