Mother 57

Late at night, the three of us were lying in the bed where our mother slept, tossing and turning, and it was difficult to sleep. We think that tomorrow will be our mother's May 7th anniversary. A thousand words come to our hearts, tears soak our pillows, and we can't sleep any more. We simply turned down from the bed, only to find my brother sitting alone in the living room.

I walked over and saw my brother leafing through the photos of his mother in his mobile phone photo album, with tears in his eyes and muttering to himself: the scenes in his life with his mother are like the waves of the sea, which are submerged by the sea for a while and jumped out of the sea for a while, and his mind is at a loss. At this moment, in addition to nostalgia and sadness, what else can he have, only to talk. ...

I remember that since May 23rd last year, your body was not as strong as before. Our brothers and sisters began to take turns to take care of you, staying with you every day and cooking lunch for you.

You said: the children are busy, take care of me and cook for me. It's really troublesome.

Mom, you don't know, we can accompany you, cook, wash and bathe for you, and everyone is very happy!

Every Sunday, I will arrange the duty table for next week. Generally speaking, Monday is my eldest sister, Tuesday is my eldest brother or elder brother, Wednesday is my second sister, I am Thursday, my second brother is Friday, and the weekend is my younger brother. My sister can't take care of her mother because she looks after the children, but as long as she has time, she will visit her mother after all.

Our brothers and sisters take turns to take care of their mothers, from May 23rd, 20021year to February 28th, 2022, taking turns for nine months and one week. Looking back now, I am so happy to be able to do this for my mother!

Because my mother is too old to leave at night, and my brother and wife have to go to work, my second sister resigned to serve her mother from March 2022 1. On weekends, my brother and sister-in-law still take care of my mother, and other brothers and sisters visit my mother when they are free.

Unfortunately, the second sister only served her mother for a month and went home during the Qingming holiday. My mother fell out of bed in the early morning of April 4, broke her right leg and hit a big bag on her head!

We sent you to the hospital in time, but you are too old, so you begged your grandfather to tell your grandmother to ask your eldest brother to shoulder the heavy burden and set up a "military order" to let you be admitted to hospital for treatment.

In the hospital, your stomach swelled like a drum. We'll fry it with wheat bran and salt, and give you hot compress. Every morning, flatulence weakens, but it swells like a drum in the afternoon!

We also use a hot water bag to hot compress the bladder meridian on your back to relieve your bloating. As long as it can alleviate your pain, it's okay for us to be tired and bitter.

After a week in the hospital, you began to have bedsores. Mom, in order to prevent you from getting bedsores, we stopped using diapers and put a cotton pad on you. Although we have to wash diapers constantly, we have no complaints about elder sister, second sister and my sister-in-law. Who will take care of you in the hospital? As long as you are wet, we will change it for you immediately, and wash and dry it immediately. Although the tap water is cold, the second sister-in-law and sister-in-law silently wash your diapers, and we are grateful to them as our daughters.

Thankfully, under our careful care, a small piece of bedsore you have suffered has healed.

On the afternoon of April 18, 2022, you were discharged from the hospital and went home. On the afternoon of April 22nd, 16: 22, my dear mother, surrounded by all the children, you closed your loving eyes and drove the crane westward. You left us only four days after you came home. How can you not grieve!

In the next few days, I often confuse the boundaries between life and death, always stubbornly thinking that you are still alive, but the ruthless facts shattered my dream and made people sad!

Your life should be judged by kindness and simplicity. You raised many of our children. In the era of material poverty, you work day and night, so that we can eat and wear warm clothes, dress neatly and live an orderly life. For our school and work.

Your contribution to your family is obvious to all! Mom, your life is really not easy. You never bother anyone at ordinary times. Even in old age, you do your own thing well and don't add any burden to your children. You don't want to enjoy your life, but you have to pay silently.

I heard that on May 7th, the dead souls will go home and say goodbye to the children again. I am materialistic and not superstitious, but I still believe that you will come back. It is a pity that you can see us, but we can't see you. You see, everything is fine at home, and your beloved child will slowly get out of sadness and hesitation. We will help each other, take care of each other and continue our journey of life. Don't worry. We are willing to kneel down and cry to see you off, and pray that you will go all the way to heaven.

Dear mother, you have gone to heaven, stayed away from illness and got eternal life! There, you will hold hands with our father until the end of time!

In memory of mother's "May 7th", we knelt at her grave to remember her kindness and the strength of her life.

Mother's life is a simple life, a hard life, a hard life and a kind life. Mother is willing to give love and be kind, setting an example for her children and grandchildren. With her pure maternal feelings and simple human nature, she showed the greatness and simplicity of her personality in the ordinary, which made our children and grandchildren proud. Her persistent, tenacious, hardworking and virtuous qualities will remain in our hearts forever.

A thousand words, condensed into one sentence, we sadly call: mother, rest in peace!
