Dear Readers,
Today is a Alzymer day, the disease which makes senior citizens not only inactive but their family members just think them as a burden on them. In natural course too, it happens but unlike other old Grand Ma or Papa, they deserve your special care. They are just like children, even like child of 3-4 years. Due to this disease they develop symptoms like uncontrollab forgetness so often, disbalance in performing their daily routine, loosing control on their brain and either too soft spoken or loosing temper so often.Many a times they avoid meeting new people or feel unwarranted fear from them.These symptom including loosing control on their hands, feet, waist or their head movements.Some times their eye sights loose control on any one point and twist uncontrollably. At the advance stage they becomes more and more dependent on their fully grown up son and daughter in law or grand children.
Now I want to narrate an incidence when an old man of 74 years when first time going to take his grandson of around 5 years, said:
You know I have become too old and may fall in walking with you, so please take my fingers in your palm so that I may not fall. Although he was just kidding so that his grand son may not run away leaving him behind and may prone to accident. But this statement of him developed a sense of responsibility in the grandson.Now both go on morning walk or evening walk hand to hand and his little one feels his responsiblity.
So In the family what so ever relationship we live in, have to be dependent on each other and take care.And simply when our parents attain age of most dependency on them, must be taken care in all good spirit.
Not to forget this is a cycle from child birth to death but once a strong physical health parent, needs help, so why not to learn and teach to others.
Thanks for reading my heartfelt expressions.
