Spends More Than 20 Years Planting A Garden Of Flowers For His Blind Wife To Smell

Husband Creates Garden For His Blind Wife To Smell

A doting husband has dedicated his life to making his blind wife smile. Toshiyuki Kurogi and his wife Yasuko Kuroki have been together for man than 30 years but their bond got tighter after she began losing her sight.

According to Buzzfeed:

After 30 years of marriage, Mrs Kuroki suddenly lost her sight after developing complications relating to diabetes. According to RocketNews24 it was devastating for the couple, who had risen early every morning to tend to their cows while bringing up three children – they had planned to go on a trip around the country in their retirement.

Depressed, Mrs Kuroki sealed herself away from the world. Her husband wanted to give her something she could enjoy, and he found the answer after he saw people admiring their pink shibazakura flower. He thought that if he planted more, people would come over to their house to keep his wife company.
