Unexpectedly, she said: at least mom will not suffer so much pain now, she can live happier in heaven.
Ah, I don't understand?
She went on to say: Mom has been in the ICU for half a year, lying on the bed, unable to move, all full of tubes, too poor. We have not been able to make up our minds, so the last breath before going home. Now I think it would have been better to make the decision earlier, mom could have suffered less pain.
She added: Now I think, I am really an ungrateful daughter, think of how much she suffered in the hospital, I can not understand what she meant.
I'm over forty myself, and my parents are in their seventies. Usually their health is not very good, minor illnesses are frequent, and major illnesses come every few years.
As a child, I can't bear to see my parents leave me, and I want them to be with me. The reality is that I have been working and living in a city far away from them since I graduated, and once in a while when I have one more day of vacation, I rush back to visit them. But even then, the amount of time I could spend with them was minimal
I thought I should at least ask them what they wanted -- would they prefer to stay in the hospital, or would they prefer to have the various tubes removed sooner?
This is the first time I've ever seen a person who has been in the hospital for more than a year, and I've never seen a person who's been in the hospital for more than a year.
But there will come a day when I should simulate the pain of that day in advance.
Death is inevitable, and I don't know when I will be in such a situation. How will I choose, when I am old, when I am tortured by illness and pain, how will I choose?
I am afraid of pain, I will do everything possible to make myself sleep long and quietly, free from some pain.
Is this a weak choice relative to life? Everyone's choices are different, but God gives the same amount of opportunities in life, time. Cherish the rest of your time, do what you need to do, love yourself and the people around you, and cherish every moment.
When you are alive, you can live every moment with your heart, and when you go, you will have no regrets in this life.
