A 59-year-old unmarried son is still taking care of his mother for nine years who suffered a stroke.

This filial son is Hong Zulong from Jinjiang, a small county in southeast China’s Fujian Province.

Since his mother was bedridden due to a stroke in 1999, Hong has accompanied and looked after her for the past nine years, feeding, cleaning, dressing and massaging her, washing, cooking and even changing diapers for her.

Hong said, “I would send mother to hospital if I had enough money, but I don’t. So that’s why I can’t marry anyone.”
