After his father’s death, a man placed his mother in a nursing home, rarely visiting her. She lived unhappily there. One day, he was called to her bedside as her health deteriorated. Frail and weak, she made final requests, mentioning poor conditions like expired food and lack of fans.
Shocked, the son asked why she hadn’t told him sooner. She calmly replied, “I think of you when your children won’t want you near them… they will bring you here.” Her words carried a painful truth: we reap what we sow.
Her reminder left him heartbroken, realizing his mistake. Parents deserve love and care in their final years, not neglect.
