a letter from mom and dad

my child.....

when i get old, i hope u understand and patience with me

in case i break a plate

or spill soup on the table because i'm loosing my eyesight

i hope u don't yell at me

older people have sensitive

always having selfpity when u yell

when my hearing get worse and i can't hear what u'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 repeating my self like a broken record

i hope u just keep listening to me

please don't make fun of me OR get sick of listening to me

do u remember when u were little and u wanted a balloon?

u repeated urself over and over until u get what u wanted

please also pardon my smell, i smell like an old person

please don’t force me to shower

my body is weak

old people get sick easily when they’re 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

u’ll understand when u’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 u’re busy with work

even if u’re not interested in my stories, please have time for me

do u remember when u were little?

i used to listen to ur stories about ur 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 u 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 my hand and give me strength to face death

and don’t worry.. when i finally meet our creator,

i will whisper in his ear to bless u

because u loved ur Mom and Dad. thank u so much for ur care. we love u........

With much love,

Mom and Dad
