The show is about a girl being diagnosed of an incurable degenerative disease at 15, but was able to continue her life until her death at the age of 25. The drama is an adaptation of the diary of a Japanese girl named Aya Kito (木藤亜也, Kitō Aya, July 19, 1962 - May 23, 1988), who suffered from spinocerebellar ataxia. She began keeping a diary at the suggestion of her doctor, and continued to write until she could no longer hold a pen. The diary, titled 1 Litre of Tears, was published shortly after her death.
I especially like this sentence: If you look up at the sky after falling down, the blue sky is also today, stretching limitlessly and smile at me.
And this too. What's wrong with falling down? Because as long as I stand up again it'll be just fine. (:
I seriously think this girl is amazing, and the show is worth the tears and time. (: All thanks to Ah Yuan who introduced this show.
