Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  E whakaatu ana ngā pikitia i tētahi tuahine atawhai e āwhina ana i tana teina ki tana koti, e kihi ana i a ia, e mau ana i tona ringa i a rāua e tākaro ana. Engari ahakoa he ahuareka te ahua o te tirohanga, he pouri tonu, na te mea he mate whakangaro uaua a Joel Wilkinson, ko te tikanga ka waiho ia ki te tuuru wira, ka poto tana ora. Ko te tamaiti e toru tau te pakeke, no Hull, i kitea he mate Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy i te ono marama ki muri i te kitenga o ona matua, ko Emma, 33, me Chris, 36, kei te uaua ia ki te whanake me te ako ki te haere. I tino pouri raua i te kitenga o nga whakamātautau i te mate o ta raua tama, ā, ko te mea pea ka ora noa ia ki te 20 tau. Inaianei, kua whakatauhia e rātau kia nui ake te koa i roto i tana oranga poto. Ko Joel Wilkinson, e rima ona tau, i kitea he mate Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy e ono marama ki muri, arā, ka ngoikore haere ōna uaua. Ko tana tuahine, ko Phoebe, e rima ona tau, e aroha ana ki a ia, e tiaki ana i a ia kia rite ki te mea e taea. Ka hiahia a Joel ki te noho i runga i te tūru wira, ā, e 20 noa iho ōna tau e ora ai. Ka tākaro a Phoebe i ngā kēmu'mōhanga uaua' e kore ai e ngenge i tōna tuakana - ā, ka kore ia e tākaro i ngā kēmu i te kura ki te kore a Joel e uru atu ki roto. Ka āwhina a Phoebe i tōna tungāne kia āta tiakiina - ka āwhina ia i a ia ki te whakakakahu i ōna hu, ki te whakau i tōna koti (matau), ka tiki i ōna rīwai i te ata, ā, ka tākaro ki a ia i te kari (matau) He mea pai, e aroha ana te tuahine matua o Joel, a Phoebe, e rima tau, ki tōna tungāne, ā, ka āta tiaki i a ia - ka āwhina ia i a ia ki te whakakakahu i ōna hu, ki te whakau i tōna koti, ā, ka āwhina anō ia ki te tiki i ōna rīwai i te ata. I mea a Mrs. Wilkinson: 'Kua pakaru to matou ngakau i to matou kitenga he mate kino a Joel. 'Kua korerotia e mātou ki a Phoebe i te wā tonu i kitea ai te mate o Joel, he raruraru tōna uaua, ā, he ngoikore ake i te mea noa iho. 'He mea nui kia mārama ia kia taea ai e rātau te tākaro i ngā kēmu kāore e ngenge i a ia pērā i te tākaro ki ngā taonga tākaro me te peita. 'Kua korerotia e mātau ki a rāua e rua, e rapu ana ngā tākuta i tētahi rongoā hei āwhina. 'Kei te tākaro anake ia i ngā kēmu "mōhanga uaua" ināianei...
