I did not expect that the "second sister" Tao Yuling in my heart is now 85 years old. I didn't expect that 85-year-old Tao Yuling is still so beautiful, elegant, calm, calm, and has a hearty laugh. It seems that there is no trouble at all.

Many people may have a hard time believing that Tao Yuling has only been in love once in her life, and that is with her later husband, Huang Guolin. In 1960, the 26-year-old Tao Yuling married Huang Guolin, and after the marriage, the couple had three daughters, and unfortunately the eldest daughter died a few years old.
Tao Yuling has been calm, calm and elegant all her life, and her hearty laughter has always accompanied her, thinking that she has no trouble. In fact, how could she not be troubled? Moreover, she is a person who has had too much trouble.
In 1993, Tao Yuling, who was busy filming TV dramas, was found to have a malignant tumor in the oral cavity during a routine physical examination, and the tumor should be removed from the face with a knife, which may disfigure or even remove the eyes. "How else do you act?" Tao Yuling, who is full of career pursuits, put forward her wish to the doctor: do not cut from the face to do surgery, so that she can continue to engage in the acting career. The doctor was touched by her determination and eventually performed the intraoral surgery for her.
After more than a month, Tao Yuling could not speak and could not eat, and her mouth lost almost all basic functions, so she had to communicate with people through writing, and from then on she began to record this unforgettable life course in a diary. Tao Yuling wrote in her diary: "Cancer, we must not sit still, we must overcome it." Have strong perseverance, an optimistic spirit, and cooperate with treatment. ”
After the treatment, we still saw her superb performances on the TV screen again and again, but off the screen, it was Tao Yuling, who was strong and optimistic, and the unknown difficult anti-cancer road: she took a bag full of Chinese medicine and medicine jars to participate in the filming of one movie after another; she insisted on six or seven hours a day, doing a kind of "inhalation" aerobic gymnastics in the form of walking as the main form. In the end, in this battle with cancer, she won.
In fact, not long after Tao Yuling's cancer surgery, her husband Huang Guolin was also diagnosed with colon cancer. Happily, like Tao Yuling, her husband's colon cancer tended to heal after several years. However, there will always be such a day in life, on January 18, 2017, Huang Guolin died of illness at the age of 86.
Today, although Tao Yuling is over eighty years old, her life has been devoted to performing arts and social welfare, dedicating light and heat.
