I talked with my mom on the phone.
Our conversation started same as last week. She called my name with crying. I could feel her sadness and loneliness from her sickness. I felt sorry I am not there for her to support her daily life.
After my mom calmed down, she started sharing her health updates. Her body cells get numbed more day by day. Now she has many things she cannot do by herself.
Then she gave me some good news for her. My dad finally started taking appropriate actions for my mom.
First he called the nursing-care product representative and started leasing some items, such as an electric nursing care bed, some handrails, and a walker.
Second, he hired some carpenters and improved some areas of first floor to make it barrier-free. The bathroom door originally opened inward is now opened outward. The entrance area originally had a huge gap of step has now a mild slope. Other areas originally had a huge gap step is now improved to a mild slope.
Third, my cousin gifted my mom a CD player and some music CDs. While I was there, my mom asked me for Hawaiian relaxing music. I used my iPad to turn on the music. My cousin was watching it and arranged a CD prayer and CDs for my mom. My mom was happy for his kindness.
Until I went to visit my mom, I never knew my mom loves Hawaii that much. She still mentions if she gets well, she wants to go visit Hawaii. She said listening Hawaiian music is now a great support for her to release her stress of physical pain.
