MATT HAS BEEN A CITY OF PITTSBURGH FIRE FIGHTER

Matt擔任匹茲堡的消防員

FOR EIGHT YEARS NOW,

FAMILY, FRIENDS, COMMUNITY,

他們來拜訪我們而且真的與我們同在

AND SUPPORT US.

並且支持我們

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DESCRIBE THIS EXPERIENCE

我不知道如何用其他更驚奇的方式

AS ANY OTHER WAY THAN AMAZING.

去描述這個經歷

WHENEVER MATT FIRST WENT OFF THE JOB,

每當Matt先行離開他的崗位

THE GUYS ON HIS FIRE DEPARTMENT

消防隊的夥伴

STARTED WORKING HIS SHIFTS FOR HIM

就會開始替他輪班

SO MATT COULD STILL RECEIVE A PAYCHECK

所以Matt仍然領有薪水

TO CARE FOR OUR FAMILY.

來照顧我們家人

- GUYS WERE WORKING FIVE EXTRA SHIFTS.

大家多做了五項輪班

I MEAN, JUST ANYWHERE POSSIBLE.

我的意思是，就是只要我們能力所及

WE WERE FIGHTING TO TAKE THE EXTRA DAYS.

我們甚至還會搶著加班呢

- WHAT HE'S BEEN THROUGH AND DONE EVERYTHING,

因為他所經歷和做的事情

THIS GUY IS MY HERO.

這個人是我的英雄

LIKE, HE MAKES ME CHEER UP WHEN I'M SAD.

像是當我傷心時，他使我振作起來

- WATCHING THEM DEAL WITH THEIR DISEASE

看到他們為了他們的疾病奮鬥

BRINGS OUT THE BEST IN YOU.

會喚醒你最好的一面

THEY HELP ME BE A BETTER PARENT.

他們幫助我成為一個更好的父親

- WHAT MATT'S DOING TODAY, WHAT MATT DID YESTERDAY,

Matt今天、昨天

WHAT MATT'S GONNA DO TOMORROW,

以及明天要做的事

THAT'S THE FAVORITE MEMORY RIGHT THERE.

就是這裡最令人喜愛的回憶

IT'S HEROIC,

那是個英勇的故事

AND IT IS AN INSPIRATION.

而且鼓舞人心

- YEAH, WE'RE PRETTY--

是啊，我們很...

YEAH, WE'VE BEEN PRETTY LUCKY THROUGH THIS WHOLE PROCESS.

我們很幸運度過這整個過程

WE'VE BEEN VERY LUCKY.

我們非常幸運

[cries and sniffles]

(一邊哭一邊擤鼻子)

VERY GRATEFUL FOR THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH FIRE DEPARTMENT

非常感謝匹茲堡消防隊

AND ALL THAT THEY'VE DONE AND THEY CONTINUE TO DO FOR US.

你們的生活中發生好多事

AND THE POSITIVITY IN YOU SAYING,

而且就像你積極的說

"WE'VE BEEN HAVING FUN EVER SINCE,"

「從此我們過得很愉快」

THAT JUST GOT TO ME.

我有同感

IT JUST--IT'S LIKE, THAT IS YOUR CHOICE,

這就像，那是你們的選擇

'CAUSE WE--THAT'S THE ONLY THING WE HAVE A CHOICE

AND YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE.

你們是漂亮的一對

YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL.

你們真的很漂亮

- THANK YOU.

謝謝你

[cheers and applause]

(歡呼和掌聲)

- DID THE CHOICE-- DID YOU--

你有.....

HOW DO YOU STAY SO POSITIVE?

你是怎麼如此積極樂觀的?

OR WERE YOU BOTH ALWAYS THIS POSITIVE

還是在診斷結果之前，

EVEN BEFORE THE DIAGNOSIS?

你們就是這樣積極正向的?

- I THINK WE'VE ALWAYS TRIED TO BE POSITIVE.

我想我們都試著保持樂觀正向

BUT, I MEAN, THROUGH THIS WHOLE EXPERIENCE,

但...我意思是，透過了這整個經歷

YOU GET TO SEE THE LOVE AND GENEROSITY

你看到了別人的愛和慷慨

OF OTHER PEOPLE ON A REGULAR BASIS.

在最常見的地方

I MEAN, PEOPLE HAVE REALLY COME OUT OF THE WOODWORK

他們真的是在我們沒有預期之下站出來

TO HELP US, AND-- SORRY.

來幫助我們，而且...抱歉，

AND WE GET TO EXPERIENCE THAT EVERY DAY,

而且每天我們都經常感受得到

ON A REGULAR BASIS,

而且每天我們都經常感受得到

AND THAT'S REALLY AMAZING.

這真的很奇妙

大約一年

ABOUT ALMOST TWO YEARS BEFORE--YEAH.

大約將近兩年前，對

- AND WHERE DID YOU MEET? - EMT CLASS.

你們是在哪相遇的? 緊急醫療技術課程

[laughs]

(笑)

AND IT'S ACTUALLY KIND OF A FUNNY STORY.

而且這其實是個蠻有趣的故事

SO WE MET IN EMT CLASS.

我們在緊急醫療技術課程中相遇

AND THE FIRST DAY OF CLASS, I GO OUT THERE,

課程的第一天，我在那裡有點失望

AND, YOU KNOW, I DIDN'T SEE ANYBODY,

你知道，我根本看不到什麼人

YOU KNOW, THAT CAUGHT MY EYE,

就是讓我眼睛為之一亮的，

SO THE SECOND EMT--

所以在第二堂課

'CAUSE MATT WASN'T THERE. MATT WASN'T THERE.

因為Matt不在那裡，Matt不在那裡

YEAH, LET ME-- LET ME ELABORATE THERE.

對，讓我...讓我詳細說明一下

[laughs]

(笑)

AND SO THE SECOND DAY OF EMT CLASS,

所以在第二堂緊急醫療技術課程

I'M DRIVING UP,

我不是很開心

AND I SEE HIM SITTING ON THE CORNER.

然後我看到他坐在角落

I'M LIKE, "HE IS REALLY GOOD-LOOKING,"

我就像是，「他真的很好看欸」

AND I WAS A MESS.

我一整個就是亂七八糟

I DIDN'T HAVE ANY MAKEUP ON. MY HAIR WASN'T DONE.

我沒有化任何的妝，我頭髮也沒整理

I WAS LIKE, "OH, MY GOODNESS.

我就想:「喔天啊，

WHAT'S THIS GOOD-LOOKING MAN DOING HERE?"

這位帥哥在這做什麼呢?」

SO WHEN I WALKED UP TO HIM,

所以當我朝他走過去

I DIDN'T SAY HELLO.

我也沒打招呼

I DIDN'T SAY, "HI, I'M JESSICA."

我沒說「嗨，我是Jessica」

I SAID, "YOU WEREN'T HERE LAST CLASS."

我說:「你上節課不在這裡啊。」

[laughter]

(笑)

AND HE WAS LIKE, "NO," AND I WAS LIKE--

然後他就回:「對啊」

I WAS JUST TAKEN ABOUT HOW GOOD-LOOKING HE WAS.

我就在端詳他帥氣的長相

AND THEN HE CHASED ME AROUND FOR A COUPLE MONTHS AFTER.

接著隨後他就追我追了大約幾個月

NO, HE DIDN'T, BUT...

沒有，他沒有，但是...

- SO DID YOU GET TOGETHER RIGHT AWAY?

所以你們馬上就在一起了?

DID YOU KNOW RIGHT AWAY, MATT,

你馬上就知道了嗎? Matt

I MEAN, THE THING ABOUT THIS DISEASE ALSO--

關於疾病這件事也...

I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT ALS--

我不知道有多少人知道...

IS, YOUR MIND STAYS EXACTLY THE SAME.

你們的精神一定是一樣的

YOU'RE AWARE.

你們是有意識到的

YOU'RE COMPLETELY A BRILLIANT HUMAN BEING STILL,

你們依舊是很卓越又燦爛的人

AND YOUR BODY JUST CHANGES,

你的身體有了變化

AND THAT IS A TOUGH THING FOR--

這是一個很艱難的事情

ESPECIALLY FOR ANYONE, MUCH LESS A FIRE FIGHTER.

尤其對於任何一個人，更不用說是消防員

AND YOU HAVE ALL THESE FIRE FIGHTERS

你們有這些消防隊員
