Elderly care...

This morning, i woke up at 6.45am...

wow, isn't that damn early...??
really haven't woke at such an hour for ages already...

why would i wake up so early le??
cos gotta do something quite meaningful ma...


So, today we went to some sorta "old folk's home"...
(actually is 2 blocks of 4-storey apartments with lonely old people...)

we did some simple medical check-up for them...such as....

measuring their weight, height, body mass index, body fat index etc...
giving them simple advices on food balance and control...
teaching them some simple exercising...
teaching them ways to avoid falls...

besides, there were also a few residents who went with us to examine the folks...


most importantly of all, i think our main aim of going there was to give them warmth..
just some chit-chat, to share their sorrow or happiness, to understand their life...
to give them a smile, to show them that there's love in this world, that there's still people who care....
there was even this cute old fellow who took out his Chinese Chess and challenged my classmate...hehe


in all, i think i had a great morning though i had to wake up so damn early..haha...





p/s:

in the far future, i really don't wanna be a lonely old fellow, someone like the guy i sketched(the one in the post before...haha)

"my future son/daughter(s):
you better take good care of this Dad of yours.."

haha...

你不会孤独终老的啦。。还有我们嘛。。因为我们会一起老的。。。哈哈。。 我想他们真的是需要爱。。能的话多去看看他们。。给他们讲笑话也行啊。。 哈哈。。上次我也有参加孤儿院的活动。。能帮到他们的感觉真不错。。
