“Death” is a topic of taboo for many people. However, whether you are willing to face it or not, most of us understand its inevitability deep down our hearts. Yet, “death” might be an abstract concept beyond the understanding of persons with intellectual disabilities (PIDs), especially for those with mild to severe intellectual disabilities. According to government statistics, the number of PIDs in Hong Kong accounts for about 1-1.4% of the total population. In many circumstances, PIDs are being taken care of by their parents or relatives, and strong bonds are therefore developed among them. With the advancement of medical technologies, the life span of PIDs is longer than that in the past, meanwhile, their relatives age, fall into illness more often and even die. Some believe that PIDs do not understand or have no feelings about life and death, and therefore choose not to tell them the truth even when their closest family members are bed-ridden or pass away. Is this the appropriate way to handle the matter? This episode records the story of the 32-year-old Sze-kei, who has mild intellectual disabilities, and how her father, mother and social worker help her understand and prepare for imminent separation from her mother in the limited time between the diagnosis of her mother’s advanced cancer and her eternal departure.
