A widower who lost his wife to Alzheimer's 72 years after their first kiss has touched hearts across Britain by penning a moving poem in her memory. Bob Lowe, 93, described the deep loneliness he has felt since his wife Kath died three years ago in his work Ode to Kath.
自第一次亲吻,第一次心灵相通,这对英国夫妇已结发72年。然而妻子因阿兹海默症去世,丈夫为纪念妻子写下了动人的诗篇。93岁的鲍勃·路易在《致凯西》中表达了自从三年前妻子逝世后他内心深切的孤独。
Their relationship survived the Second World War and they were together for six more decades. But the terrible disease took its toll in her later years, until one day she asked him: 'Where's Bob?'
他们共同经历过二战,携手度过六十载春秋。然而可怕的疾病却缠上了凯西,有一天她问他:“鲍勃去哪了?”
Ode to Kath begins with the words: 'I am alone, now I know it's true. There was a time when we were two.'
《致凯西》是这样开头的:“吾身孑然尚已知,却念与尔同枝时。”
The poem prompted an instant outpouring of support yesterday after Bob read out his work on BBC Radio 4 and 5 Live to raise awareness of a loneliness helpline. BBC bosses said 'We've been overwhelmed by reaction from across the world since. People have wanted to share their experiences saying Bob's poem had made them realise they were not alone in their loneliness and grief. '
