My parents have been dependent on each other for decades since I was born. When I was a child, my parents poured all their heart and energy into my upbringing, giving me meticulous care and love. It wasn't until I became an adult that they finally had a life of their own and no longer completely revolved around me.
However, just a year ago, my father died in a traffic accident. This was a huge blow to the mother, and she was immersed in grief and lost the motivation to live for a while. I tried my best to comfort her, hoping that she could gradually come out of the haze and regain her yearning for life. But her hurt was far worse than I had imagined.
Less than a year after her father's death, her mother gradually came to the end of her life. Her body became worse and worse, and her spirit became more and more depressed. I took her to the doctor, who diagnosed her with severe depression. The doctor suggested that she should go to a nursing home for professional care and treatment, but her mother insisted on taking care of her illness at home. I had no choice but to do my best to take care of her daily life.
"Daughter, I know you've been trying your best to take care of me, but I really can't hold it anymore. My health is deteriorating, and your life is being dragged down by me. I've been thinking that if only I could have died sooner, you wouldn't have to worry about me. "One day, my mother said to me suddenly.
I hurriedly comforted her: "Mom, don't say that. I will never be able to repay you and my father's kindness to me. What you need now is to take care of your illness, and I believe that as long as you persevere, you will definitely get better. "
"But I really can't hold it anymore. I live every day in pain and despair, and life has lost its meaning to me. Daughter, I would like to ask you to do me a favor. Mother said, tears rolling down her old cheeks.
"Mom, you say, I will do my best to help you. I shook her hand in distress.
"I want to donate all the 600,000 savings we have saved over the years to this nursing home, so that they can take good care of other elderly people in need. So that I can be freed and I won't trouble you again. After the mother finished speaking, the tears finally broke down the embankment.
When I heard my mother's words, I felt a pang of heartache. How could I let my own mother be so sad and hopeless in the last days of her life? I hurriedly comforted her: "Mom, don't think like that. You and your dad have worked hard for so many years to save for the future of our family. The most important thing for you now is to take care of your illness, and when you recover, we will discuss this matter slowly. "
"Daughter, I've made up my mind. You can help me donate this money to this nursing home, I really can't live. "My mother took my hand with a firm and sad look in her eyes.
Looking at my mother's complaining expression, my heart felt as if someone had stabbed me with a knife. What should I do? How could I stop my mother from making such a desperate decision? How could I make her regain her courage and confidence in life?
Facing my mother, who was on the verge of collapse, I suddenly had a huge struggle in my heart. How can I stop her from making such a desperate decision?
"Mom, can't you think about it again? You and Dad have worked hard for so many years to save up to give us a stable future. If you really donate all your money, what will I do in the future? I will be very worried about your life. I pleaded.
"Daughter, you don't have to worry about me. When I'm gone, the money can be used to help more elderly people in need. I'm sure this will make my death more peaceful. "Mother stuck to her decision.
"But your health is the most important thing! What you need most now is to recuperate, and when you recover, we will discuss this slowly. I tried my best to persuade him.
"Daughter, I've made up my mind. You can help me donate this money to this nursing home. "My mother held my hand tightly, and the pleading look in her eyes made it impossible for me to refuse.
Looking at my mother's complaining expression, I finally compromised. I can't stand to watch my dearest people fall into such a desperate situation. So, I silently agreed to my mother's request.
With my assistance, my mother soon donated all of her $600,000 savings to the nursing home. This huge donation shocked the person in charge of the nursing home. They expressed their heartfelt gratitude to their mother and promised to use the money to improve the facilities of the nursing home, so that more elderly people can enjoy their old age here.
As I witnessed all this, I was filled with pain and guilt. This was not supposed to be the end of the mother. We should have lived together for the rest of our lives. But now, she gave up on herself and chose such a desperate ending. I can't wait to be by her side all the time, take good care of her, and let her embrace the hope of life again.
At this moment, my mother suddenly said to me, "Daughter, don't worry. I have removed the last stone of my heart. From today, I can be free. "
When I heard my mother's words, I felt a surge of despair and anger in my heart. How could I allow my dearest to give up on life so easily? I desperately persuaded her, "Mom, don't think that! Your life is precious, and you can't just give it up." You still have a lot of quality time to enjoy, and you can't just give up. "
But my mother just looked at me quietly, her eyes full of indifference and despair. She said slowly, "Daughter, I've lived enough. I'm suffering far more than I can bear. I'm tired of living like this, I just want to be free. Just let me go, don't stop me. "
My heart was like a knife, and tears welled up in my eyes. I desperately grabbed my mother's hand and pleaded, "Mom, you must be strong to live! You and me, I will always need you by my side." I will take good care of you, please don't give up your life!"
But the mother just shook her head silently and said nothing. There was no longer any splendor in her eyes, replaced by a darkness of despair. I knew right away that I couldn't convince her at all.
At that moment, the nurse who took care of my mother knocked on the door and said that she had received her donation and expressed her heartfelt thanks to us.
Seeing my mother being thanked again and again, I suddenly felt an indescribable anger and sadness rise in my heart. I rushed forward desperately and wept bitterly at the nurse: "You people, can't anyone see my mother's pain now? What she needs most now is love and companionship, and you even thank her for her donation! She made such a decision out of desperation, don't you have any sympathy?"
The caregiver was taken aback by my violent reaction and said in a panic, "Yes, I'm sorry, we also appreciate your mother's generosity, but your mother has made it clear that she wants to donate this money, and we can't do anything about it." We will make good use of this money so that more elderly people can be better cared for here. "
"But don't you see her pain now? She just wants to be relieved, she is not giving this money out of sincerity!" I continued to roar.
"We are also very difficult, but after all, it is your mother's voluntary decision. We can't force her to change her mind. You have to trust us to put this money to good use and make it really work. The nurse carefully explained.
I couldn't help but cry bitterly, "You just watched my mother give up her life? What she needs most now is companionship and love, and you only care about this money!"
"We understand your pain, but your mother has made up her mind. We want to be able to help her, but if she insists, there's nothing we can do. We will do our best to make the most of this money and benefit more elderly people in need. The nurse said, patting me on the shoulder soothingly.
I begged my mother in vain to change her decision, but she just looked at me quietly, without any waves in her eyes. I realized that I couldn't change her mind anymore. So, I gently hugged my mother, tears streaming down her thin shoulders.
"Mom, I'm really reluctant to let you go. You have always been my dearest person, and your loss will leave me in pain. But I understand that your pain is now more than you can bear. I will respect your decision, but please know that you will always be my dearest person. I said in a choked voice.
My mother gently patted me on the back and whispered, "Daughter, thank you for your continued care and concern for me. I know you must be miserable right now, but I really can't live anymore. I only hope that through this money, I can help more people in need, so that I can feel some comfort in the heavenly spirit. "
When I heard my mother's words, I burst into tears. I knew that no matter how much I struggled, my mother had already made up her mind. I can only respect her choice and accompany her through her last moments.
In the days that followed, I was by my mother's side every day. We chatted, reminisced, and occasionally cried together. I did my best to comfort her, hoping to rekindle her hope in life. But the mother was never able to get rid of the despair and pain in her heart.
Finally, just a month after her mother donated 600,000 yuan in savings, she passed away peacefully. Before she died, she held my hand tightly and said to me, "Daughter, thank you for your love and care for me all the time. Please live well and don't be sad for me for too long. I will always watch you in the spirit of heaven. "
Hearing my mother's last words, I could no longer suppress the pain in my heart and began to cry loudly. I felt as if I had lost everything, and my whole person was in the abyss of despair. I couldn't accept my mother's death, let alone her final decision.
At my mother's funeral after her death, I was devastated. I stroked my mother's cold face over and over again, tears streaming down my cheeks. I hate to leave this world with her and be by her side forever.
At this moment, the person in charge of the nursing home came over and expressed his most sincere condolences to me. He said that his mother's generous donation has enabled them to greatly improve the living environment of the elderly and purchase more medical equipment to benefit more elderly people in need. He said that his mother's good deeds will be etched in their hearts and will never be forgotten.
Hearing his words, a strong wave of anger and dissatisfaction suddenly rose in my heart. How could I accept my mother's gift of life? This money should not exist at all! I don't want my mother to sacrifice herself in vain!
I grabbed the person in charge by the collar and said viciously: "You people dare to come and tell me this! You killed my mother! If it weren't for this damn nursing home of yours, she wouldn't give up her life! You are a bunch of liars who take advantage of people's danger!"
The person in charge was taken aback by my violent reaction, and hurriedly reassured: "Miss, I understand your pain now, but please believe that we are definitely not taking advantage of your mother's danger. Your mother made this decision voluntarily and we just respect her wishes. We will make good use of this money to benefit more elderly people in need. "
I glared at him angrily, "Do you think this will satisfy me? My mother sacrificed herself in vain, and you still want to profit from it! I want to take back all this money, and I want to use it for more valuable purposes!"
Hearing his words, I was completely out of control. I punched him in the face and roared, "You shameless liars! You're taking advantage of people's danger! Now, give me back the money at once!"
Seeing this, the people around me came forward to stop me. But I was in a state of great grief and anger, and no one could stop me. I yelled at everyone, as if I wanted to vent the resentment that had been pent up in my heart for many years at once.
At this moment, a familiar figure appeared in front of my eyes. It's my husband. He hurriedly stepped forward and hugged me and comforted me softly, "Honey, you have to calm down. I know your pain right now, but you can't do that. Your mother doesn't want to see you sad like this. "
Hearing my husband's words, I finally collapsed in his arms like a deflated ball. I cried bitterly and said, "Husband, what should I do? How can I accept the fact that my mother sacrificed herself in vain? I really can't forgive those people for wanting to profit from it!"
"But, husband, I really can't accept it! My mother has so many good times to enjoy, why is she doing this, why is she giving up her life, what should I do?" I grabbed my husband's clothes and tears flowed uncontrollably.
"Honey, I know you're in pain right now, but you must pull yourself together. Your mother must not want to see you fall into despair. She must want you to live well and enjoy your own happy life. We should respect her choice and honor her memory, rather than being so sad that we can't help ourselves. The husband said softly.
Hearing my husband's comfort, I finally calmed myself down a little. I knew I had to learn to accept the cruel truth and cherish what was in front of me. Although my mother's death was painful for me, I still had to continue to live and live for her.
