We are capable of anything to make our parents feel good and never separate us from them at a time like this when they need us most.

We are capable of anything to make our parents feel good and never separate us from them at a time like this when they need us most.

In order not to leave them alone, we, the children, would be willing to accept any type of job, to know them in order and to see them calm. Certainly, the Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated this process by which older people need to be protected from contact with active people in order to avoid getting sick.

This is also the reason why many elderly parents in old people’s homes have not seen their children for months…

The same thing happened to MJ Ryan, a woman of American descent, whose mother, Theresa, has been living in a nursing home for some time; The woman is 90 years old and suffers from an advanced form of dementia, but when she was younger, she herself said these words to her daughter: “There is always an alternative way. When something gets in your way, find another way to solve it. ”

That’s exactly what he thought, and MJ thought of the next plan. Knowing that with the outbreak of the global pandemic, she would no longer be able to visit her mother at the Massachusetts institution, and video calls were no longer enough to cover the growing longing; MJ decided to work in the old people’s home laundry every Thursday afternoon; a job that MJ immediately accepted to see his sick mother at least once a week.

Better than nothing in these difficult times for everyone, right?
