A letter from Mum & Dad."
When I get old, I hope you can understand and have patience with me.
In case I break a plate, or spill soup on the table because I'm loosing my eyesight, I hope you don't yell at me.
Older people are sensitive, always having self pity when you yell.
When my hearing get worse and I can't hear what you're saying, I hope you don't call me "DEAF".
Please repeat what you said or write it down.I'm sorry my child.
I hope you have the patience to help me get up.Like how i used to help you when you were little, learning how to walk.
Please bear with me,When I keep repeating myself like a broken record, I hope you just keep listening to me.
Please don't make fun of me or get sick of listening to me.
Do you remember you were little and wanted a balloon?
You repeated yourself over and over until you got what you wanted.
I hope you can be patient with me when I'm always cranky.It's part of getting old, you'll understand when you're older.
And if you have spare time, I hope we can talk, even for a few minutes.
I'm always all by myself all the time, and have no one to talk to.I know you're busy with work.
Even if you're not interested in my stories, please have time for me.Do you remember when you were little?
I used to listen to your stories about your teddy bear.
When the time comes, and I get ill and bedridden,
I hope you have the patience to take care of me.
I hope you have the patience to take care of me during the last few moments of my life.
I'm not going to last much longer, anyway.
When the time of my death comes, I hope that you hold my hand and give me strength to face death.
And don't worry, when I finally met our Creator,
I will whisper in his ear to bless you.
Because you loved your mum and dad.
Thank You so much for your care.
We Love You.
With much love,
Mum and Dad."
