"Mom, are you yelling that you're going to be hospitalized again?" I smiled helplessly, but my heart was mixed. At the age of 74, she is in good health, but she always has a soft spot for hospitals. Every time I was hospitalized, it was nothing more than for the so-called comprehensive medical examination, which made me feel both funny and distressed.
My mother, an authentic rural woman, has a different way of life. She doesn't eat "open bowl rice", doesn't drink "plate soup", and is always picky to make people laugh. And my dad endured all this silently, taking care of the family with his care and patience.
I remember when I was a child, I often envied other people's children, with the delicious food made by my mother and the warm embrace of my mother. And I can only watch my mother point fingers at my father and pick and choose about housework. At that time, I always wondered, why didn't my mother give me some of this concern?
Now, I'm older, and my mom is older. Although her body is still quite tough, there are always some small problems that make her uneasy. So, she began a frequent trip to the hospital. Every time I was hospitalized, she always asked me to do this and that, as if I were her personal nurse. And I, although busy, try my best to meet her requests, because I know that this is her dependence and trust in me.
However, there are times when I feel tired and helpless. My mother's squeamishness made me feel a little unbearable, and her pickiness also made me feel a little powerless. But every time I see her expectant eyes, I tell myself, hold on a little longer, try harder.
I know that Mom only did it because she was afraid of being alone, for fear of being ignored. She hopes to receive more attention and care through hospitalization. And I, as her daughter, should also do my best to give her more companionship and love.
So, even though I sometimes feel tired, I still smile and say to my mother, "Mom, don't worry, I will accompany you to the hospital." "Because I know that this is my responsibility and obligation as a daughter.
