OLD AGE...
the last stage people went through before leaving this world..

some of them are conscious... some are speechless...
some on wheelchair.. some without legs, some are blind, deaf or ...
too sick and lying on the bed....
looking at them.. feel so painful in the heart..

a glance on their face.. thought they jus want to be left without any disturbance..
but when start to talk to them..
can deeply understand how happy they are to have someone to talk..
can feel how lonely they are.. how sadly they are to be left there..
how strong they are, and how awful to see they hardly struggle to live every minutes..

they hardly and suffer eating.. refuse eating but still force to eat..
complaining not having good stuff to eat, not enough thing to eat and nothing can be done..
jus everyday sitting waiting for their relative come for visit...
more pityful for those who dun have relatives or relatives been far across the sea..

one thing grateful for them and lucky...
salute!!! the kind-hearted management people...
people who always get scolded, blame and criticise all the time..
they can really understand, caring, giving the best they can...
with one aim... want the elderly feel comfortable, less pain, less sickness...
they contribute a lots.. with jus a sincere heart.. listen to the elderly..
fullfill their needs...

Feeling so painful in the heart looking at the elderly.. feeling so speechless and helpless....
