NBC晚间新闻 丈夫举牌示爱30年妻子

The side of the road may seem like a lousy place for a date. I went home and changed my pants. I got fresh jeans on. For John Plocher, these days there is no better spot to see Lisa, his wife of 30 years. There she is. She's undergoing¹ chemotherapy for leukemia at UCI Medical Center. Because of coronavirus she can't have any guests, not even her husband or 16 grandkids.

My heart aches because I am not with my wife. I even tried to bribe² the people to let me in but they wouldn't. So John had an idea. I love you, which is true. Showing up outside her window with signs of love. Give us a smile, honey. What a fun surprise. Yeah, well, you look great. I like your hat. Defying³ the distance. All right. Babe, i can see ya. With a road sign, attraction.

路边对约会来说是个很吵的地方。我回家换了裤子。穿上了新裤子。这些天，对约翰·布洛克来说，他没有更好的看望自己30年的妻子丽萨的地方。她就在那里。她患了白血病，正在加利福尼亚大学欧文医学中心接受化疗。由于冠状病毒疫情，医生不让人们去看望她，她的丈夫和16个孙子孙女也不可以。我的心很痛，因为我不能陪我的妻子。我甚至试图贿赂这里的人让我进去，但是他们不同意。所以约翰就有了一个点子。我爱你，这是真的。他出现在妻子病房的窗户外面，拿着一张爱的指示牌。亲爱的，笑一下吧。好有趣的惊喜。是啊，你看起来很棒。我喜欢你的帽子。无视距离，约翰拿一张爱的指示牌示爱。宝贝，我能看见你。
