Question

Dear son,

The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health, have patience and try to understand me.

If I get dirty when eating, if I can not dress, have patience and remember the hours I spent   1   it to you. If, when I speak to you, I   2  the same things thousand and one times, do not   3    me, listen to me. When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story until you got to sleep. When I do not want to have a   4   , neither shame me nor scold me. Remember when I had to chase（追逐） you with thousand excuses I   5 , in order that you wanted to bathe. When you see my  6  little about new technologies, give me the necessary time and do not look at me with your mocking( 嘲弄 ) smile. I taught you how to do so many things: to eat good, to dress well, to confront life（面对生活）….

When at some moment I lose the   7  , let me have the necessary time to remember. When my   8   legs do not allow me to walk, give me your hands, the same way I did when you gave your first   9  . And when someday I say to you that I do not want to   10   any more ---- that I want to rest forever, do not get   11   . Someday you will understand.

Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived. Some day you will discover that, despite（尽管） my mistakes, I always wanted the   12   thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way for you. You must not feel sad, angry or impotent( 无可奈何 ) for seeing me  13   you. You must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as I did it when you   14   living. Help me to walk, help me to end my way with love and   15   .

I love you, Son.

Your father
