A letter from an elderly woman from a nursing home.
I am 82 years old, I have 4 children, 11 grandchildren, 2 great-grandchildren and a room of 12 square meters.
I no longer have a home or expensive things, but I have someone who will clean my room, prepare food and bedding, measure my pressures and weigh me.
I no longer have the laughter of my grandchildren, I don't see them growing, hugging and arguing. Some come to me every 15 days, some every three or four months, and some never.
I no longer work in the winter, I don't bake cakes, I don't dig up the garden. I still have hobbies and I like to read, but my eyes quickly hurt.
I don’t know how much longer, but I have to get used to this loneliness. Here at home, I lead group work and help those who are worse than me as much as I can. Until recently, I read aloud to an immobile woman in the room next to me, we used to sing together, but she died the other day.
They say life is getting longer. Why? When I’m alone, I can look at photos of my family and memories I brought from home. And that's all.
I hope that the next generations will understand that families are born to have a future (with children) and that they do not forget about the family even in old age.
Please don't show this to my children.
Grandma Maria loves you. 👵🏻❤️

    • 老年监狱
    • 人生的不同阶段,每个人都要面对。时间在流逝,不要贪心,享受生命赋予的春华秋实就好。 +5
    • 刚刚看完百岁老人飓风,跟着看到这个。心情一下子跌到谷底了
    • 孤独,无助,死亡是所有人的归宿。如果老而不死,把自己当成鬼,看那个自己的前世,当他是讨厌的人,看他笑话,幸灾乐祸,这样就可以了。这是生命的一个过程,没什么的 +1

      幸福是比出来的。想想自己这个鬼躯体还在,比那些躯体没了好多年的鬼要好多了,也就幸福了
      • 老年人的孤独是社会性问题。也是俺害怕的。
    • 这就是贪心,很多人活不了这么长命,看不到那么多孙呢。
      • 她才82,怎么叫“很多人活不了这么长命”?你是不是想说活到60,70就应该去死了?那这个坛子里很多人都别讨论退休,应该准备坟墓和后事去了。 +1
    • 需要有女儿。这种情况,女儿通常会照顾剩下的一个老人。 +1
      • 命太长很可能是会遇到人生三大悲剧之一,看着子女死去而自己还活着。 +1
        • 点赞。另外两个是什么?
          • 幼年丧父,中年丧偶,晚年丧子 +1
            • 丧父不幸,丧母更惨。
    • 身体不好。我们大学体育老师81岁,看起来像50出头。
    • 还是老头运气好,跑得快。
      • 哪个老头?
      • 据观察,大多数时候都是老头跑得快
        • 说实话,即使健康尚可,也想75岁之前跑掉算了,当然要是有巴菲特的财富和健康,不妨活着。
          • 我是希望在自己不能自理的时候能安乐s
