It may seem ordinary, someone successfully graduated with a doctorate, but what is interesting about this story is that the mother pursued her education at the age of 71. Seen in several uploaded photos, even though sitting in a wheelchair, the mother who was wearing a suit and a white shirt smiled happily together with relatives and family.
The child was also enthusiastic about taking a portrait of his beautiful mother in her graduation gown in front of the graduation stage.
"My mother, Yura, fulfilled her last wish to graduate with a doctorate at the age of 71 with an extraordinary struggle," the caption in the video, quoted by brilio.net from TikTok @yoenseeyoen on Tuesday (3/9).
