Old Folks Home

Its Sunday...

How many of us spent our time, lazying around on bed? I went for a visit in Old Folks Home somewhere at Kajang with New Community today.

Many thoughts in just few hours of visit there. The old folks were actually sitting outside, waiting for our arrival when we reached. Some may have just sat there didn't know how to communicate with us,(I didn't really know what to talk to them either...so bad in talking with old folks...gotto learn more, I shall!), but when we were shaking their hands each by each, warm sincere smile is drawn on their faces.

They consist of young to old people. Mostly having some health problems, abandon by their family. Lavin, me and Jordon had some talk over the corner. And I think what she said is touching...
There was 1 aunty there, having a 4th stage of cancer, taking chemotherapy to survive. She could not take solid food, as she cannot digest and she will just vomit out. What she took is only a kind of organic drinks...the doctor says, she will leave us just anytime. Having heard of this, I've been told that her 2 kids never visit her and the last time the small son brought her home, it was like on Chinese New Year....and later when she is brought back to the old folks home, her condition got worsen.


Lavin asked me, do you actually know how your parents fed you spoon by spoon last time? Even when you don't eat, they come out with all kind of stories, to trick you eating something, just to fill your tummy. Even if you still don't eat, they grab you hard, pain in heart, STILL, they force you to eat just a spoonful of food. Making sure, their kid is fed. Imagine how mummys care and love their kid...how hard time they had, when you are sick...


See this...What is wrong with this world? You tell your parents, you have no time taking care of them? You have no even just a few hours to visit them in old folks home???? They are the people that brings LIFE to you. Will you be in this world if not because of them?

Remember at times when you did something terribly wrong, everyone else gave you that kind of eyes, YOUR PARENTS are the people that will always be there, believe you, trust you, give you chances again and again...no matter what happened.

Why? Because you are their kid. They are your family. No matter what happened, this fact can never change.


There are times that we said we are boring, we have nothing to do... If everyone is willing to spend sometime, visiting old folks home around...sacrifice just a few of your boring hours, do you actually know how much joy and laughters you can bring to these old folks?

A little of your effort, can contribute so much to their life. Why not?



THe machine that Christien was talking about is a health scanning we did for the old folks. Christien said never trust the machine because his scan result was not very positive. Muahahahaha

I tested. And its all in healthy level.
