When you are old

331 views. 2011-8-16 21:51

After supper, I went to my grandpa’s house to have a look. Maybe I can do something for them. To my surprise, the first sight to his house is that there are two purple scars on grandpa’s arm.

“what’s wrong with you, grandpa?” I said. “he fell down this afternoon in the yard, I was not at home at that time.” Grandma didn’t have the heart to tell me. “Oh, my God, are you ok now?” I don’t visit them quite often for there is a certain distance between our house. My grandpa has been ill for half a year. Now he looks extremely skinny and gaunt through these oppressive hours. Every time when I shake his hands, I can sense that he is getting old.

 

I open the door of their bedroom. Oh, it’s stuffy and has unpleasant smell. There is still a thick quilt on the bed. I walked out of the room instantly and sadly said to grandma: “it must be very hot when you sleep at night, I will go back home to fetch my small electricity fan to you.”

 

On my way home, I was thinking how could they stand the heat in that room. Grandpa is ill, so that a good living environment is a must for him. my uncles and aunts don’t know that? How comeare they busy? That is not the case, I suppose. Usually they give money to grandpa and grandma and ask them to have dinner together in some big days. Perhaps a lot of things occupy them and cannot take some time out of it to see grandpa. As a matter of fact, they are filial sons. But if they can give grandpa and grandma more concern about their life, things will be better.

 

……

 

I put the electricity fan on the table and adjust the on-off and find a plug for them. Therefore, they can use it conveniently and without trouble.

 

I need to visit them frequently, and take grandpa to have a walk. Along the way, we can share our stories and interesting things.

I feel sorry for your grandpa and grandma . People always devote most of their effort to their own children and forget to give their old parents enough concern . What will we be like when we are old . The same treatment ,I think . It's kind of you to spare time to care for them .Best wishes!
