A letter from mom and dad ---------------------------------------- .. My Child, When I get old I hope you understand and have patience with me In case I break a plate, or spill soup on the table because Im loosing my eyesight, I hope you dont yell at me. Older people are sensitive ...always having self pity when you yell When my hearing gets worse and I cant hear what youre saying, I hope you dont call me Deaf..! please repeat what you said or write it down Im sorry my child ...Im getting older When my knees get weaker, I hope you have the patience to help me get up Like how I used to help you while you were little, Learning how to walk. Please bear with me..!! When I keep repeating my self like a broken record, I hope you just keep listening to me.. Please dont make fun of me, or get sick of listening to me Do you remember when you were little and you wanted a balloon.?? You repeated yourself over and over until you got what you wanted ...Please also pardon my smell. I smell like an old person Please dont force me to shower. My body is weak. Old people get sick easily when theyre cold. I hope i dont gross you out. Do you remember when you are little..? I used to chase you around because you didnt want to shower I hope you can be patient with me When Im always cranky Its all part of getting old. Youll understand when youre older And if you have spare time, I hope we can talk Even for a few minutes Im always all by my self all the time and have no one to talk to I know youre busy with work Even if youre not interested in my stories, Please have time for me. Do you remember when you are little..? I used to listen to your stories about your teddy bear. When time comes and all I get ill and bedridden, I hope you have the patience to take care of me. IM SORRY if i accidentally wet the bed or make a mess I hope you have the patience to take care of me during the last few moments of my life. Im not going to last much longer, anyway. When the time of my death comes, I hope you hold my hand and give me the strength to face death And dont worry.. When I finally meet our Creator.. I will whisper in his ear to BLESS you Because you loved your MOM and DAD. Thank you so much for your care WE LOVE YOU ..with much love, MOM & DAD
