The Spring Festival, for many people, is a time of reunion and festivities, but for the Luo family, it is accompanied by a trace of unspeakable fear. The 82-year-old father, Luo Zhihua, is unable to take care of himself because of his old age and frailty, which shrouds the whole family in a heavy shadow.
First Encounter:
Luo Zhihua's daughter, Luo Ting was always uneasy in her heart. She walked into her father's room with a heavy heart and watched him lie on the bed trembling weakly. "Daddy, are you alright?" her voice trembled slightly.
Luo Zhihua raised his head slightly and nodded vigorously, "I'm fine, but I'm a little unwell." ”
Hospital Visit:
Soon after, Luo Zhihua's condition deteriorated sharply, and Luo Ting had to rush him to the hospital. In the hospital ward, Luo Zhihua's thin body looked even more lonely and helpless.
Family Meetings:
The Luo family held a family meeting to discuss how to face the problem of their father's pension. Luo Ting and her siblings each made their own suggestions, but it was difficult to reach a consensus.
Luo Qiang: We should send my father to a nursing home, where there are professional nursing staff who will take better care of him.
Luo Yan: No, I don't want my dad to go to a nursing home, because he will feel very lonely.
Looking for a solution:
Luo Ting began to look for a solution, she carefully investigated the nearby nursing home, and also considered the possibility of home care. However, each choice comes with a variety of challenges and difficulties.
Reluctant choice:
After facing all kinds of difficulties and struggles, Luo Ting felt very helpless, and she had to make a difficult decision. "Maybe we'll have to send Dad to a nursing home first, and we'll talk about it later. ”
Rollback:
However, just when Luo Ting thought that everything was solved, she received an unexpected phone call. "Hello, this is *** nursing home, we are sorry, due to lack of manpower, we are temporarily unable to accept new seniors. ”
Summary and Reflection:
Faced with this unexpected situation, Luo Ting had to re-examine the complexity and urgency of the pension issue. She realizes that the issue of elderly care is not only the responsibility of the family, but also a challenge that the society needs to face together.
