As we all know, the electronic big screen on Times Square in the United States is one of the most famous billboards in the world, and many famous companies will play heavyweight advertisements here.
However, just recently, there is suddenly a strange "advertisement" on the advertising screen here:
There is a picture on the screen that says:
"Come and ask my daughter out."
"I'm Molly's wingman and her mom."
Although the marriage advertisement is also an advertisement, why does it appear on the electronic screen of Times Square? What kind of family?
In fact, the woman who married her daughter in Times Square wasn't a rich celebrity, just an ordinary mother named Beth Davies.
The main reason for this is that she wants to see her daughter marry out in her lifetime.
(Beth and daughter Jasmine)
Beth, 61, was diagnosed with breast cancer 18 years ago, in 2004, and underwent chemotherapy.
By June 2020, doctors regrettably informed her that the cancer had metastasized to the bone and that the doctors had returned to the sky without surgery.
After learning that her life is left, Beth has no time to feel sad, and she must hurry to complete her wish before she dies.
Watching his daughter Jasmine walk into the palace of marriage in a wedding dress.
So with the help of her husband, Beth began to prepare for her daughter's marriage.
It's definitely a time-critical job, because until now, Beth's daughter Jasmine is still single...
Beth first took medication to control cancer, ensuring that she would live at least two years or more, and then she downloaded and registered various dating apps for her daughter.
This is not enough, in order to let her daughter be seen by more people, Beth also specially bought her a billboard in Times Square.
Depending on the market price, the price of advertising here is about 5,000-50,000 US dollars / day.
Beth wrote in her daughter's marriage advertisement:
"Jasmine is a ray of sunshine. From the moment she woke up, she changed the lives of everyone around her.
She will infect others through her own smile because she will only look at the merits of others. ”
Beth also said that she is willing to be her daughter's "wingman",
It is because during her illness, it is her daughter who sends her to and from various hospitals every day, and now it is time to repay her daughter...
After the commercial aired,
Beth's friends told her that if they had dared to do so, they would have been "killed" by their own daughters.
But Jasmine didn't think so.
She was grateful for everything her mother had done for her, especially when she was running out of time and trying to think of herself. She also took her mother to the billboard, smiled and took a picture with her mother.
However, for netizens, they feel that Beth's approach is not so appropriate:
I know her intentions, but it's too much of a pressure for her daughter.
I have mixed feelings about this story. I'd be angry if my mom did that.
But the story is sad and sweet, so I wish them good luck.
My mom died of cancer.
I can assure you that the last thing I want to do while she's on chemotherapy and hospice is dating.
Fortunately, my mother never wanted to do such an embarrassing thing for me.
I can understand how this mother feels, but I don't think it's the right thing to do.
This will bring great pressure to her daughter, but also bring a lot of unhappiness and guilt.
In short, I hope the family can have a good result...
