Today my esteemed readers of Steemit, I have a theme that although you may not believe it is worrisome and sad at times according to the circumstances and the people who live it, as it is when our parents reach advanced age, and they become children again, situation even more difficult and complicated when they have diseases or neurological disorders typical of age and other more alarming as Alzheimer's.
Because it saddens me because we are not prepared on many occasions to take care of them, protect them and consent as they should and deserve, because of our commitments: work, professional, personal, with children, economic and others, unintentionally we mistreat them, because by their condition they require a lot of patience, tolerance, love and above all of calm, in a personal way, my mother that I love and adore presents very strong neurological and senile disorders, repeats things n number of times, does not know what he does, he forgets where he puts things, he does not remember if he ate or not, that is, he does things like little children where you have to be behind them: watching them, correcting them, protecting them, reminding them every second like: where things are, what they are, how they are used, in other words they become children again.
Sometimes I think and I apologize to God because I do not have enough patience and tolerance to take care of her, forgetting that maybe when I was a girl I was the same or worse as she behaves and yet she had the strength, tolerance and patience that in my opinion I lack.
There are people who have had to put them in care institutions, either because they do not have enough patience to care for them or because they do not want to do it, they do not know, they remember or they are not aware that we were the same when we were children and when we arrived At a certain age, we become children again.
I, and I hope not to change my opinion and I ask God very much that it be so, I have not thought of confine it or intern it in any geriatric institution for its care, unless there is a situation that deserves it, since, I think we should do an effort to take care of them and protect them because thanks to them: we are what we are and how we are, they filled us with love, they taught us: principles, values, faith, hope, they gave us: trust, security, protection and freedoms.
I suggest that those who care for their parents with advanced ages and even more with difficult mental, neurological or physical disabilities, ask God to give them a lot: patience, tolerance, love, strength and hope to attend and taking care of their parents, since, it is the least we can do for them, after they gave a lot for us and dedicated a great part of their life to make us people: successful, kind, caring, positive, victors, humanitarian , fighters, humanists, loving, tolerant, protective, family, friendly, participatory, cooperative, and above all filled with much faith and hope in their special and perfect being as God.
For all that I have explained, I leave you a very special video dedicated to those special beings that allowed us, besides God, almighty, to be here today, I just hope you like it:
The bible speaks of a promise when we honor the lives of other people: especially our parents, it promises lengths of years here on earth, in any situation always the mercy and love of God must go forward.
So, thank you very much for supporting this post that is to raise awareness of all children who live in this situation with their parents and give strength and remind them that love to their parents should be infinite as well as their thanks and unconditional support when require, likewise we are going to reach that stage and we must educate our children so that they have the same way of honoring and taking care of us as we did with them.
my dad just went through this with my grandma. She had alzheimer's, and lived for several years without being able to do anything for herself. It was painful to watch her like that, but the all the family stepped up to help. It was great in that regard. It will happen to a lot of us at some point.
Thank you for sharing your family experience in this regard, and it is true that all or almost all of us will go through this stage if God allows it and if we add this type of illness, I only hope that my family will give me the support that is needed to live even though I am absent but with the love and attention needed until the Almighty decides, and I regret that loss of that being that you had in your family.
Certainly this disease is like re retreat of our elders towards childhood, however, it is a noble gesture of good children to take care of them and pay them a little love that they gave us so much. Good post @ mmsm1964
Many thanks and blessings @emiliocabrera friend, even more coming from a person who illustrates and motivates with its beautiful, interesting and ingenious publications.
excellent publication my friend @msmm1964. After reaching a certain age, we become children again. God guide and enlighten all people to care for their parents in the best way, because with the simple fact of giving us life we should thank them that thanks to them we exist and that there is no better way to reward them than to take care of them. they, giving them love, affection, do everything possible to understand them, and even more so when they suffer from a type of neurological diseases, since they forget things and act practically unconsciously. God gives you wisdom and guides you and the rest of the world who have to face this kind of situation with their parents. It is difficult, but how to judge when they act unconsciously.
Thank you very much for your response to this post. It is very true what you share with us friend @eumelisb, grateful and God bless you for your message of support to all those people who are living with their parents this situation and must have a lot of tolerance but calm and patience, and I say so I currently live with my mother, and we have to fight and ask God to give us the strength to continue supporting them with perseverance and love.
God gives you strength, tolerance and above all a lot of patience so that you can take care of your mother in the best way
