Remembering that Christmas

I have only a few memorable Christmas moments and one of them that stands out in my mind was the one I was still in 4th Grade. I can still vividly remembered that year We had a christmas tree up. It does not look like a tree — bt as kids, we still call it “christmas tree.”. My mom made it using white thread and we have to paste it with cotton that it turned out white. Then my mom decorated it with old christmas cards. There inside at the center, mom placed a miniature manger.

That was a nice year I guess. My mom happy. Seems we are all happy. My grandma was still alive that time and she stays with us. There was only one picture that proves that this moment happened and it is now in our famly album. My grandma, my mom, and me together had a picture taken. (3 generations picture). My grandma looks so cute, my mom still big, and me still a child. :)

As always, when growing up, I always feel comfortable when all of my siblings and parents are at home and together during joyous occassions.

This was one of those occassions.

Bettercare for Me

I belong to a family of 5. Presently, my mom is under my care. I belong to a culture where children impressed in their mind that they have a lifetime responsibility in taking care of their parents. I’m one of those children. :) but I am hoping that my child will never develop the burden of taking care of me when I will be old.

Talking like this with my online friends from the States or even Canada, they don’t have the same views with me regarding the responsibility of taking care of their old folks until they are unable to take care of themselves. 99% of them rely on nursing care institution or facilities. So, one time, I mentioned about bettercare for a better care home . This program provides guidance on what you need to know and prepare for the future. Even before their love ones reached their dementia age -One can take time to study and be familiar with the Better care home services.

I don’t like my kid to have the burden of taking care of me in the future then this Bettercare care home is also for me.
