a letter from mum and dad

My Child,

When i get old, i hope u understand me and have patience with me;

In case, i break a plate, or spill soup on the table because I'm losing my eyesight, i hope u don't yell at me;

Older people are sensitive, always having selfpity when u yell;

When my hearing get worse, and i cann't hear what you're saying, i hope u don't call me"DEAF", please repeat what u said or write it down;

I'm sorry,my child;

I'm getting older;

When my knees get weaker, i hope u have the patience to help me get up;

Like how i used to help u while u were little, Learning how to walk;

Please bear with me;

When i keep repeat my self like a broken recorder, i hope u just keep listen to me;

Please don't make fun of me or get sick of listening to me;

Do u remember when you were little and you wanted a balloon?

You repeated yourself over and over until you got what you wanted;

Please also pardon my smell,

I smell like a old person;

Please don't force me to shower,

My body is weak;

Old people get sick easily when they are cold;

I hope i don't gross u out;

Do u remember when you were little?

I used to chase u around because u didn't want to shower

I hope u can be patient with me,

When I’m always cranky

It’s all part of getting old

You’ll understand when you’re older

And if u have spare time,

I hope we can talk

Even for a few minutes

I’m always all by myself all the time

And have no one to talk to

I know you’re busy with work

Even if you’re not interested in my stories,

Please have time for me

Do u remember when you were little?

I used to listen to your stories about your teddy bear

When the time comes and I get ill and bedridden

I hope u have the patience to take care of me

I'm sorry

If I accidentally wet the bed or make a mess

I hope you have the patience to take care of me during the last few moments of my life

I m not going to last much longer,anyway

When the time of my death comes,I hope you hold may hand and give me the strength to face death

And don’t worry..

When I finally meet our Creator..

I will pray to Him

To BLESS u

Because you loved your Mom and Dad.

Thank you so much for your care.

We love you

With much love,

MUM and DAD
