My name is Wang Jianguo, and I am 70 years old this year. For most people, the age of seventy may mean a peaceful old age, but for me, it is a deep contradiction. I've been thinking about a question for a long time, that is, "Why is it not suitable for the elderly to go to a nursing home for the elderly?"
As a child, I grew up in a rural family of seven people crammed into a small house. His father was a hard-working farmer, and his mother was a kind housewife. I have two older brothers and a younger sister, and although we sometimes quarrel and have conflicts, blood is thicker than water. At that time, although the material life was not rich, the family was warm and harmonious, full of love.
As time went on, I grew up and left my hometown to work in the city. In the city, I met my wife and we had two children, a son and a daughter. I work hard to give my family a better life. But as the years went by and my parents grew old, they needed more care and attention from me.
I am well aware that as a child, it is my responsibility to take care of my parents. However, due to the busy schedule and the pressure of life, I was unable to take care of them wholeheartedly. Even though I go home every year to visit them, what can I do? My parents are getting weaker and they need more care and attention, and I can't give them enough time and energy.
In my mind, there has always been a contradiction. I wanted to be able to take care of my parents, but I couldn't put down my work and devote myself to taking care of them. In my city, nursing homes seem to be a solution, but deep down I have doubts about nursing homes. I've heard a lot of stories about nursing homes, some of which are in a bad environment and poorly serviced, which makes people feel chills when they hear it. I was reluctant to send my dear parents to a place like that, but I couldn't give them adequate care.
Until one day, I met an old man in his seventies who changed my opinion. That day, I was walking in the park and saw an old man sitting alone on a bench. I walked over to say hello to him, but I didn't expect us to have a very speculative conversation. He told me that his name was Uncle Li, that he was seventy-six years old, and that he was a retired teacher.
Uncle Li confided in me about his life, he used to teach in a rural primary school, and the children liked him very much. But as he grew older, his health gradually weakened, and the children grew up one by one, and they were busy with work and life, and rarely came home to visit him. Eventually, he was left to live alone and spend his old age alone.
After listening to Uncle Li's story, I felt a sour feeling in my heart. His experience made me think deeply, and also made me more understand the meaning of the phrase "the elderly who have no conditions are not suitable for nursing homes". Perhaps, we should pay more attention to the elderly who need help and care, rather than sending them to nursing homes.
When I got home, I decided to pay more attention to my parents' lives and take care of them as best I could. I understand that no matter how busy I am at work, the health and happiness of my family is the most important thing. Perhaps, I can't completely solve all the problems, but I am willing to do my best to make my parents feel warm and loved in their old age.
That night, I decided to call my parents and tell them that I had decided to spend more time with them. On the other end of the phone, my father picked up the phone, and when he heard my words, he said with a little excitement: "Jianguo, it's great that you can finally accompany us more." "Hearing my father's voice, my heart warmed, and this kind of warm feeling is something I haven't experienced for a long time.
In the days that followed, I would go home every weekend to see my parents. We chatted together, walked together, cooked together, and the warmth of family filled the void in my heart. Mom and Dad also seemed much more energetic, and they were smiling, as if they had rediscovered the motivation for life.
One day, I accompanied my parents to the hospital for a physical examination. On the advice of my doctor, I decided to find a home care worker for my parents to help them with their daily life. After some inquiry, I found a nurse named Xiaofang. Xiaofang is a young and energetic girl, she is gentle and attentive, and she quickly wins the love of her parents.
"Xiaofang, hello! I am the son of Jianguo, and it is a pleasure to meet you. I said hello to Xiaofang.
"Hello, Mr. Jianguo, I will do my best to take care of your parents. Xiao Fang replied with a smile.
Xiaofang's arrival has brought great changes to her parents' lives. She not only takes care of her parents' diet and daily life, but also often chats with them and tells them interesting stories. Mom and Dad also enjoyed being with Xiaofang, and a deep bond was established between them.
Gradually, I saw the happiness in my parents' eyes. They no longer feel lonely and helpless, but are filled with love and anticipation for life. I am deeply grateful to Xiaofang for her presence and her rediscovery of the joy of life as a family.
However, just when everything seemed so rosy, a sudden accident shattered my happiness.
One day, I received a call from an unfamiliar number, and Xiao Fang's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Jianguo, Dad has fallen, come to the hospital!"
In the hospital, I saw my parents' pale faces, and I couldn't help but feel a pang in my heart. Xiaofang told me that my father accidentally fell while cleaning the room and broke his leg bone. I was so anxious that I quickly comforted my parents and asked the doctor about the diagnosis and treatment plan.
The parent's injuries were not serious, but they required surgery. I decided to take care of them with all my might and not let them be hurt in any way. Before the surgery, I prayed with my parents that the surgery would go smoothly.
The surgery was successful and the parents' injuries were effectively treated. During the recovery period, I decided to take a break from work and be by their side with all my heart, giving them the utmost love and attention.
During this time, my relationship with my parents became closer, and we snuggled up to each other for every heartwarming moment. My parents' gratitude to me was palpable, and I experienced the warmth and happiness of my family.
However, just when we thought everything was going to be okay, another heart-wrenching thing happened......
It was a sunny afternoon, and I was basking in the sun in the yard with my parents. Suddenly, the phone rang, I picked up the phone, and heard a doctor's anxious voice: "Mr. Jianguo, your father is not doing well and needs to come to the hospital as soon as possible." "My heart tightened, and I quickly told my parents that I was going to visit my grandfather in the hospital, and then left the house in a hurry.
When I arrived at the hospital, I saw that the doctor was busy rescuing my grandfather. I anxiously asked about my grandfather's condition, and the doctor told me that he had suffered a sudden cardiac arrest and was in critical condition. I felt a panic and quickly begged the doctor to do everything possible to save my grandfather.
After the doctor's all-out rescue, Grandpa's life was finally saved. I held my grandfather's hand tightly and thanked the doctor for saving my life with tears streaming down my eyes. Although my grandfather is old, he is still a strong fortress in my heart, and I can't lose him.
At the bedside of the hospital, I talked to my grandfather about the past. My grandfather told me the story of when he was young, he was a soldier who participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and witnessed those difficult years. He also told me that his greatest wish was to see me and my parents happy and have a good life.
I deeply felt my grandfather's love and expectation for me, and I was determined to cherish every moment with him even more. Although my grandfather's health is very weak, I am confident that with our love and care, he will definitely recover his health and stand up again.
After a period of treatment and rehabilitation, Grandpa's physical condition gradually improved. I took turns taking care of my grandfather with my parents and gave him the utmost love and attention. Grandpa's mental state gradually improved, and he began to regain the joy of life and actively participate in the family's chores.
One night, we sat around the table and had a great time eating a steaming meal. Grandpa picked up the wine glass, smiled and said to us, "I am really blessed to be able to be with you and live such a beautiful life. No matter what happens in the future, I will be grateful for your love and care for me. ”
When I heard my grandfather's words, my heart was filled with emotion and gratitude. The love and support of family members is the most valuable asset, and only by working together can we overcome all difficulties and meet the challenges of the future.
After my grandfather recovered, our family cherished the time we spent with each other more and worked hard to create more good memories. I know that the health and well-being of my family is the most important thing, and I will always be by their side and give them the utmost love and attention.
As time passed, our family's life gradually returned to normal. Grandpa's health is also getting better, he will bask in the sun in the yard every day and occasionally go for walks in the park with us. I feel extremely relieved to see my grandfather rediscover the joy of life, and I am even more determined to accompany my family.
However, just when we thought everything would calm down, another accident happened. One day, I received an urgent phone call, and the doctor's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Jianguo, your mother's condition is not very optimistic, and you need to come to the hospital quickly." ”
I was shocked and quickly told my father and grandfather that they were going to visit my mother in the hospital. When we arrived at the hospital, the doctors were already in the emergency rescue of my mother. I stood anxiously and prayed for my mother's safety.
After some emergency rescue, my mother's condition was finally brought under control, but her physical condition was still very weak. I held my mother's hand, and tears flowed involuntarily. My mother opened her eyes slightly, looked at me and smiled and said, "Jianguo, don't worry, Mom is fine, you have to be strong." ”
I deeply felt my mother's love and expectation for me, and she was always the strongest support in my life. I was determined to do everything I could to take care of my mother and not let her be hurt in any way.
At the bedside of the hospital, I talked to my mother about the past. My mother told me that she was always proud of me and that she believed that I would be able to get through this difficult time. As I listened to my mother's words, my heart was filled with gratitude and emotion, and I was determined to work harder to take care of my mother and give her the utmost love and attention.
After a period of treatment and rehabilitation, the mother's physical condition gradually improved. My father and I took turns taking care of my mother and gave her the utmost love and attention. My mother also showed great perseverance and strength, and she actively cooperated with the doctor's treatment and tried her best to recover her health.
After my mother recovered, our family cherished the time we spent with each other more and worked hard to create more beautiful memories. I know that the health and well-being of my family is the most important thing, and I will always be by their side and give them the utmost love and attention.
The mother's recovery filled the whole family with joy and hope. Our family has become more united and our relationship with each other has become stronger. Grandpa and Grandma were so happy to see their mother recovered and discharged from the hospital, and the whole family was full of laughter.
When we got home, we sat around the living room as a family, enjoying the warm moment of reunion. The table was filled with a variety of delicious dishes, and I had prepared a sumptuous dinner for everyone. Dad picked up the wine glass and proposed to everyone: "Today is a good day, let's toast to the recovery of Jianguo's mother!" Everyone raised their glasses and wished their mother health and happiness.
After dinner, our family sat in the living room and chatted. Grandpa talked about his youth, and Mom shared some interesting family anecdotes. I feel very blessed, and this kind of family warmth and happiness is what I have always longed for.
After a while, I decided to add some new activities to my home. I invite my parents and grandparents to travel together and get a feel for the outside world. Everyone was happy, and we set out on the journey together.
During the trip, we visited a lot of beautiful sights, tasted a variety of foods, and participated in some interesting activities. Mom and Dad smiled happily like children, and grandparents smiled happily with their faces. This joy and happiness of the family makes me feel extremely satisfied and happy.
When I got home, I decided that I wanted to cherish the time I spent with my family more and try to create more good memories. I know that the health and well-being of my family is the most important thing, and I will always be by their side and give them the utmost love and attention.
After going through this series of stories and experiences, I deeply understood the meaning of the phrase "the elderly who have no conditions are not suitable to go to nursing homes for the elderly". The family is the warmest harbor, and only with the companionship and care of the family can the elderly live a happy and happy life. I will always be by my parents' side and grandparents, giving them the utmost love and attention so that they can enjoy happiness and joy in their old age.
