when i get old
i hope you understand
and have patience with me
i case i break a plate or spill soup on the table because i'm losing my eyesight
i hope you don't yell at me
older people are sensitive
always having selfpity when you yell
when my hearing gets worse and i can't what your saying
i hope you don't call me deaf
please repeat or write it down
im sorry my child,im getting older
when my knees get weaker
i hope you have the patience to help me get up
like how i used to help you while you were little
learning how to walk
please bear with me
when i keep repeating my self,like a broken record
i hope you just keep listening to me.
please don't make fun of me,or get sick of listening of me
do you remember when you were little and you wanted a baloon?
you repeated youself over and over until you got what you want
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 you out
do you remember when you were little?
i use to chase you around
because you didn't to shower
i hope you can be patient with me when im always cranky
its all part of getting old..you'll understand when you old.
iand if you have spare time,i hope we can talk.
even for a few minutes
i'm always all by my self all the time
and have no one to talk to
i know your busy with work
even if your not intersested in my stories,please have time for me
do you remember when you were little?
i used to listen to your stories abaout your teddy bear
when the time come
and i get ill and bedridden,i hope you 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 my hand and give me the stength to face death.and don't worry..
when i finally meet our creator..
ill whisper in his ear to BLESS you
because you loved your mom and dad
thank you so much for your care
we love you.
with much LOVE
Mom and Dad
