Loving your parents

These 2days, we went to visit 3 nursing home around PJ. Nope, I dont like visit. Benci sebab letih and puasa jadi extra letih and on the way balik KL, mesti jam gila,lpas tu xsempat masak, then terpaksa pergi beli dekat bazaar Ramdhan, which means kena spend money and membazir duit. Damn.

Anyways, my point is to tell you about the nursing home experience. Nursing home is the last place I want to end up at. I hate seeing old people suffering and dying.


The first nursing home I went is Felicity Nursing Home. So , I talked to this old man. When I first introduced myself to him, he cried. I was in shocked. I asked, " Uncle,kenapa nangis?", then he replied "Saya seronok.".Then I added " kalau seronok,kenapa nangis?"."Saya seronok ada orang datang." Then sambung menangis balik.

Ok, damn I want to cry that instant. Then,I chatted with him and figured out that he was a mechanical engineer with few kids. His children are total dumbass left him alone at nursing home, which explains why he was crying when I first met him.

Another uncle pulak, when we asked him about his children, he replied sorta like this. "Satu anak dekat Hong Kong.Satu dekat Penang. 3 dekat KL. Semua tak guna. Otak sudah jam!"

I know, asking about children to these residents was a complete sensitive question. But hello, that is the MOST basic thing to ask. Mau tanya apa lagi? " Uncle, bini mana? Sudah mati ka? Sakit apa?".. LOL.Bodoh jugak aku ni.

The thing is,how could anyone, left their parents to nursing home. Hello, have you been to any nursing home? Gila tak best tempat ni. Most of the resident aren't receiving proper treatment for their each condition because there's no health care professional inside the house. The doctors came like once a week. Rehab team only come upon request. The staff are foreign maids and volunteers.It is very dull inside. not very hygienic. Soo not a good place to live in.


This auntie, she has a severe RheumatoidArthritis. Fuyyooh, her knee is beyond help.

This uncle is damn funny. He likes to walk all the time. He rest like 2minutes, then he walked all around the house. Its funny, you heard " excuse me, excuse me" very often when he wants to pass through you.


We want to protect the elders from H1N1.Not to protect ourseleves.
I dont wear mask. I am immuned from the virus already.
Hehehehhe bongkak gila.



We spent hours hearing her whole life story. From childhood to adulthood. Best gila dia membebel. Hahahahha

I was saying, if our parents can take care of us, since we were born up until today, why cant we? I know I am not the type of expressing love to parents, but I think they knew that I love them. The question is, how do you know, that one day, when the time comes, you are not the one who sending your parents to nursing/old folks home? Or you are the one who taking care of your parents?We never know, until we reach that moment.

Or maybe one day, you'll end up at nursing home because your children are a total dumbass. Please please please. Be thankful. Take care of your parents.
Belajar rajin-rajin, make your parents proud.
