Now THAT'S devotion

Now THAT'S devotion
22.04.2015 14:33
These loving images show it really was in sickness and in health when this Chinese couple made their wedding vows 55 years ago.

Devoted wife Wei Guiyi, 76, has guided her blind hubby Huang Funeng, 80, around with a bamboo pole in their small village in southern China for 30 years since he lost his sight to a degenerative eye condition.

Despite her own hunchback condition caused by osteoporosis, the pensioner never complains about their plights and says she looks forward to every new day, the People's Daily Online reports.

Now the story and images of the couple making their way around Donglan County in Guangxi province have been branded 'pictures of true love' as they have been picked up on social media.

Guiyi became the eyes for both of them when Huang was infected with a degenerative eye disease and lost his eyesight in 1985.

Huang now follows his hunchbacked wife around, clasping onto a bamboo shaft, as she takes him on daily errands to the shops.

They married 55 years ago when they were in their 20s but were never able to have children.

On their wedding day, they promised each other that they would look out for each other for the remainder of their lives

Huang Funeng said to his wife: 'I am going to look after you for the rest of your life' while she told him: 'I am going to depend on you forever.'  

Now she describes everything she sees and encounters to him on their daily walks and and is in charge of everyday tasks like the shopping.

She said: 'We are very happy and have a contented life. We will always be by each other's side. 

'I am his eyes and he is my everything'.
