Description

The busy son is going to take his mother who is suffering from rheumatoid arthritis disease to the hospital. While she is getting ready to go out, he sees her struggling to put on lipstick with difficulty moving her fingers due to the disease. Then he has a flashback to recall as a boy that she has always improved her self-esteem by paying attention to her appearance. On the way to the hospital, he comments that the doctor resembles her late husband, and later she smiles cutely when the doctor tells her that the treatment is making progress. When going back home, he takes her for a walk to the sea she has loved since early times. Seeing his mother who is properly made up and looks beautiful and confident as she used to be, he recognizes the importance of early rheumatoid arthritis treatment.
