“What is Love?” Its hard to define in words but can be expressed in actions, feelings and emotions. I understood more about love after hearing the story of an elderly couple.
An Australian man, Bill Forward, devotes his life caring for his cherished, infirm wife after 50 years of marriage. Bill and Glad Forward live on the Sunshine Coast of Australia. Because of advanced Alzheimer's, Mrs.Forward is now largely unable to do anything for herself, meaning her husband has to attend to her constantly.
Director Fiona Cameron was deeply touched by the story of this couple, who she has known for 15 years.
"It has been breaking my heart to watch Glad wither away over the last few years but it has also astounded me how Bill has gently cared for her," says Fiona. "It wouldn't cross his mind to do anything but cherish, protect and care for her. Their love is just so profound and I felt that others need to see that this kind of love still exists."
Their love is strong, Bill wouldn't mind serving for another 50 years, the way he recollects how they met and cherishes their memories together, speaks for itself!
And watch him respond to how popular their love story became as it went across the globe. Such a humble man, he is a role model to every man!

I believe that, true love exists in every heart, it just needs to be awakened! :)
Have a wonderful day, take care :)
