This man’s inability to provide his mother with the proper care and attention following the death of his father was a tragedy. She could receive the assistance she required for her daily needs in a nursing home, so he sent her there out of sadness.
It was clear that his mother was unhappy there, though, and although he knew he should have gone to see her more frequently, his schedule had become more hectic than usual, making it difficult to find the time.
As soon as he heard that his mother’s condition had gotten worse, he hurried to her side. She was found unresponsive on her bed at a nursing home.
he looked him in the eyes and said she had some requests for him when he asked if there was anything he could do for her.
She was immediately given his assurance that he would make every effort to grant her final wishes.
The mother’s deteriorating health was the reason for her request for new fans and a refrigerator.
She was unable to sleep for several nights because of the outdated fans’ inadequate ventilation, which led to her suffocating, and because the refrigerator was stocked with spoiled food.
As he had not anticipated his mother to be in such critical condition, her son was shocked.
She then turned to face him and advised him to make sure his children were raised in better circumstances than he had because you get what you give.
The son’s heart was irreparably wounded when he heard those words. By taking his mother to the nursing home without getting her consent, he realized he had forgotten about her.
It is our responsibility as children to make sure that our elderly parents can live out their golden years in peace and comfort.
