Documentary about Caring and Loneliness for the Elderly

[@MegaCaprice123]

Wonderful daughter, God bless this beautiful soul. Age brings with it disability and our children are supposed to help us but my daughter is too wrapped up in her own world to be bothered and my son does drop by occasionally. In the meantime, we struggle on but as the weeks turn into months, I feel the struggle getting harder. There is no help out there for elderly folk.

Sad-but true!

My husband passed away recently. I’m healthy 64 years old, but I’m alone and sometimes think , what will happen to me when I’m old and can’t do for myself anymore.?

[@herminiasalas8484]

Mary you are great.

I brought my mother into my home, with my family and was her care giver for 3 years. I had little help but I have no complaints. I had to cook for my family anyway so one more to feed wasn't a big deal. You don't have to cook everything from scratch. My mom could eat, chew whatever food we had. Now, I am disabled with mobility,, balance problems and was suddenly living alone and in mourning. My son came and he cuts my grass, etc but I still have to fix meals, do my laundry and care for myself. I try to clean but vacuuming, mopping, scrubbing bath tubs and some of the dusting is impossible for me.

My mother and father had four children. Two moved away, and my younger brother and I, the oldest, stayed. Everyone was ready to come visit when they were doing well, eat, borrow money, they were there all the time. But as soon as they got ill, the visits became less and less. My mother got dementia and had to be put into a nursing home. Very soon after my father became ill, I had to sell his house and he moved in with me. I cared for him for five years until he passed. My mother is still alive and I still care for her and bring her home twice a week just like I did while my dad was alive. I love my brothers and my sister, and they come and visit on occasion. My sister comes and helps out for a week here in there and it does help. But what they seem to think is that because I receive the proceeds from the house, I should never ask them to do anything. They act like they’re doing me a favor when they do anything at all. They were their parents also. I only have one child, and I know that in for me, I do not ever want to do this to my child. I do not want him to spend his last year’s taking care of me like I had to.

Well done dear, no matter what we do we are never able to compensate our parents especially mother. Remember what you offer for your old parents now, your kids will offer you back the same when you get old.

[@JESUSisLORDVideoBible-channel]

Please keep up the good work.. those who take care of their parents are blessed .. I took care of my mom who has dementia along with my father at home until she went to be with the Lord.. she was never sent to assisted living.. my brother and sister hardly came and left quickly... they used to think since I live in dad's house it's only my responsibility.. the Bible says what we sow is what we reap and the good and right work you are doing will be rewarded... God bless you and your dear mother always..Amen

[@herminiasalas8484]

Keep your caring.

Eileen you have a beautiful daughter may God bless her richly xox 😘

[@para321mt]

I would gladly do this for my mother, if only she were alive! A little thoughtfulness goes a long way! In God's love!

[@ozzie3751]

This is how it should be .children should look after their parents when they are old .

[@suzyhalilovic6652]

Couldn't agree more Ozzie that's how it should be ...but today many kids don't care at all about parents ...too busy dealing with their own family which is sad must say that some kids look after parents well some parents don't appreciated it sad

She's one fine-looking lady...still sharp and very nice-looking. Must have been a beauty in her youth. From a 75 year-old guy,

Loneliness is everywhere in the world. It's even more terrible when there is no one.

[@michellee2990]

Absolutely ! Sadly , if I live long enough , I'll be completely alone in old age . I'm trying to prepare for it as much as I possibly can .

[@suzannegreenwood5155]

I am alone and fear for the coming years and what might become of me.

[@joanmarietsultrimparkin1821]

I am so amazed people in the west cannot try to.live together. I am a refugee in Nepal or wherever I can hide out because my sons did not help Me build a little place on the land I bought for tha .reason they were so uncaring and now are ashamed I am.in the street.

[@paulpayton8238]

Praises The Lord, 4 a good daugther!! glad she can walk now and then.

[@MrSvenovitch]

Your 'lord' let her grow frail instead of taking her home. Stop praising cruelty and grow up.

[@dinarkhomsyah6102]

You know what's you "rich" ? Take care of your parents. Bless you 😇

I expect your Mum has passed on now. I hope you are alright. You did a wonderful thing.

[@billquinn6224]

Hey!!! As soon as my two sons realized that I was getting old, what did they do? They wrote me off.

Love you Eileen ♥️

[@areenaabbas5075]

Wonderful and lucky daughter to be able to take care of her mother. Unfortunately in our Indian society most married women can't look after their own parents. However it's supposed to be their duty to take care of their husband's parents.

[@areenaabbas5075]

@Kayla Nguyen I am from North of India and believe me things haven't changed much in this part of the world when it comes to expectations from women.

[@JESUSisLORDVideoBible-channel]

Now it is law in india that women should be allowed to take care of parents.. please read this www.change.org/p/government-of-india-married-couples-should-be-equally-liable-to-take-care-of-both-set-of-parents-not-just-husband-s-side

[@areenaabbas5075]

@@JESUSisLORDVideoBible-channel it's just a recent update in the law. We all know the ground reality that these things are not practiced.

[@JESUSisLORDVideoBible-channel]

@@areenaabbas5075 it can be practised... and I have personally helped an old couple fight for their right ... of course I received a lot of criticism.. but criticism should not be feared when justice is at task....
