A few days ago, according to the latest reports from Hong Kong media, 86-year-old veteran artist Yu Mulian temporarily stayed in a nursing home due to a temporary leave of absence from her domestic maid. However, what is unexpected is that in just one month, Yu Mulian has repeatedly expressed a strong desire to go home, and her living conditions in the nursing home have attracted widespread attention and the situation is worrying.
On May 2, Yu Mulian confided in an interview with the media about the difficult state of mind of living in a nursing home. She claimed that her life in the hospital had caused her to lose her appetite, she could not sleep at night, her weight had plummeted, and she described her as withered, as if she had lost weight overnight. Not only that, but she was often plagued by fake news, and her psychological pressure increased dramatically, so much so that she frequently mentioned that she was in poor health and felt that her life was in danger.
Yu Mulian, who has been living alone for a long time, suffered from pulmonary fibrosis and haematitis three years ago and had difficulty moving, so she hired a maid to take care of her daily life. However, Yu Mulian attaches great importance to dignity in her heart, and always insists on bathing in person and refuses to use adult diapers. In the nursing home, because the hospital was worried about her safety, she was advised to wear diapers around the clock, a change that made Yu Mulian extremely uncomfortable and highlighted her nostalgia for her old lifestyle.
In the interview, Yu Mulian also generously talked about getting along with Zeng Jiang, Li Longji and other friends in the circle, and bluntly said that Zeng Jiang has a strong macho tendency, and the cooperation process is not pleasant; At the same time, she sternly refuted the rumors circulating on the Internet that she had lived in a subdivided unit and borrowed money everywhere because of poverty, saying that she had been diligent and thrifty all her life, had rich savings, and owned a property with a market value of more than one million.
It is reported that the nursing home where Yu Mulian lives is a high-end institution that has just opened for half a year, and the rooms are fully equipped and new and comfortable, equipped with double rooms with windows. However, compared to the modern facilities of the nursing home, Yu Mulian misses her life in her own home, where she does not need to wear diapers, can go out for a walk freely, talk to her neighbors casually, and the joy of life and interpersonal communication is far more than the closed life of the nursing home.
Yu Mulian has never been married or childless all her life, and she has always held a grudge against her mother's abandonment, and her half-siblings will only ask her for help when they need it. Despite the lack of love when she was young, Yu Mulian was not hostile to the world, but showed selfless love, not only donating money to build a school in her early years, but also writing a will in advance before moving into a nursing home, planning to donate millions worth of real estate for public welfare.
At present, Yu Mulian is enduring the torment of nursing home life, anxiously waiting for her return to Hong Kong after the maid's holiday, so that she can leave the nursing home as soon as possible and return to the free life she has longed for. The changes in the life of this legendary artist in his later years not only touched the sympathy of the general public, but also triggered an in-depth discussion of the society's living environment and needs of the elderly in their later years.
