Loving husband spends 2 years planting thousands of flowers for his blind wife to smell
Mr. and Mrs. Kuroki lived a happy life
as dairy farmers in rural Japan, raising two lovely children. But
tragedy struck when Mrs. Kuroki suddenly lost her sight due to
complications from diabetes. Soon, she became depressed and withdrawn,
secluding herself in the family home.
Mr. Kuroki struggled to find a way to
cheer his wife when a beautiful idea occurred to him: he decided to
plant a flower garden where she could enjoy their smell, enticing her to
go outside. Two years of hard work and thousands of flowers later, the
private farm now draws people who want to see this real life love story
from all around the world. (h/t: rocketnews24)
