After
his father died, this man could not give his mother the care and attention she
deserved. He was sad, so he sent her to a nursing home where she could get the
help she needed for her daily needs.
However,
it was evident that his mother was unhappy living there, and while he knew he
should have visited her more frequently, life had gotten busier than usual,
making it challenging to find the time.
He
raced to her side as soon as he learned that his mother's health had
deteriorated. He discovered her at a nursing facility, lying motionless on her
bed.
When
he inquired if there was anything he could do for her, she looked him in the
eyes and said she had some requests for him.
He
quickly assured her he would do everything he could to fulfill them and grant
her last desires.
The
mother’s request for new fans and a refrigerator resulted from declining
health.
She
spent several sleepless nights due to the lack of sufficient ventilation from
the outdated fans, which caused her to suffocate, and a lack of food because
the refrigerator contained expired items.
Her
son was surprised since he had not expected his mother to be so close to death.
She
then looked him in the eyes and said that when his children no longer wanted
him around, he should ensure they provided better circumstances than he did
because what you offer is what you get.
When
the son heard those words, his heart was broken beyond repair. He realized he
had forgotten his mother by taking her to the nursing home without her
permission.
Our
job as children is to guarantee that our elderly parents can enjoy their golden
years in peace and comfort.
