An old lady

I visit an old lady...

She is 60 somthings. She live with herself only. It was a small house. It is dark and cool (or cold?)

She used to be a hardworking mum who did more one jobs both day and night. But she still needed to take care of her sons.

she have about 5 sons. Actually, she have more than 5 sons. Where are the rest?

She was very poor. She earned money but her husband used all the money she earned to buy drugs. Because her husband is a drug abuser. So she sends (sells) them to the rich people...

She is very lonely. She seldom watches TV or listens radio because she want to save money. Why her flat is very dark? The same reason... that she want to save money. She said her sons, daughter-in-laws, grand-son seldom to visit her and phone her.

She always said she want to die. She said what she wants before she death is that she want to meet all her sons.
She met the rest of her sons... however, she is very sad! why? One of her sons said "You are not my mum ! you are the woman that sell your sons to someone to earn money !!! you never take care of me... What do you want ??? You want me to give you money or what???"

Everyone must be sad too!

I ask her to recognize more friends from nursing home or at the park... she just said "you know me some problems with my leg(arthritis)...Also no one would like to know more me as i am very poor and i am an illiterate person... don't try to talk me into knowing more friends..."

Her self-esteem is very low... We try to help her by visiting her and phone more to her...

I think care can help to fight lonely!
