When the weather got cold, Liang Qing's condition suddenly relapsed and her cancer cells spread again. This time the situation was more critical, so the hospital directly issued a critical illness notice.
Zhang Weifang and Lu Shi also accompanied her to the hospital. Liang Qing, lying on the hospital bed, had a yellow complexion and sparse hair. It was obvious that he was seriously ill.
Zhang Weifang's tears suddenly fell. They had just sat together and had a meal a few days ago, but she didn't expect that people would become like this in the blink of an eye.
Liang Qing is only 53 years old. She has been beautiful all her life. Even now, lying in bed, her beauty cannot be concealed.
Liang Qing was very open-minded. She knew that she would not live long, so after being discharged from the hospital, she went directly to her daughter's house. She did not want to die in someone else's home.
Liang Qing and Zhang Weiren have been together for almost ten years. To put it bluntly, they are just living together, but they have not obtained a marriage certificate.
And at the beginning, they agreed that if this day ever came, they would go back to their separate homes and would not be buried together.
Less than two months after Liang Qing went to her daughter's home, she passed away. Zhang Weifang and Zhang Weiren went together to see her off for the last time. Both of them were very sad on the way.
Zhang Weifang felt that life was impermanent. They were on their way home, while Zhang Weiren was commemorating their feelings in his heart.
When she was alive, one could not feel her benefits at all. Only after she passed away did Zhang Weiren realize how thoughtfully Liang Qing had taken care of him during the past ten years.
Every meal is carefully prepared, with both meat and vegetables, and the combination is very reasonable to ensure adequate nutritional intake.
Not only that, they also specially ordered fresh pure milk for him every day. This kind of meticulous care makes people feel extremely warm.
What is even more surprising is that even his favorite teas have been carefully classified and organized. Whether it is black tea, green tea or dark tea, they are all available to meet his needs for different tastes.
Time keeps passing and people keep looking forward. After being sad for a while, Zhang Weiren slowly adapted to living alone.
In order to take care of his life, Zhang Nailin also found a live-in nanny for him. Now, Zhang Weiren lives a good life and goes to the mahjong hall to play mahjong every day when he has nothing to do.
Lu Shi also went with him once, but he didn't like the atmosphere inside. The mahjong hall was full of smokers, which was both choking and smelly.
Moreover, when he returned home, Zhang Weifang smelled the odor on him and made him sleep in the guest room for two days, so Lu Shi never went there again.
On May 8, 2014, the old lady in the family suddenly fell and could not move. The old lady fell at Zhang Weishuang's home, so after she was frightened, she immediately called to inform other brothers and sisters.
The old lady was sent directly to the hospital. After a series of examinations, the doctor said that her thigh was broken. As she was old, her bones were too fragile. It would be difficult to reconnect them and it would be very painful. Therefore, the doctor suggested that everyone take the old lady home to take care of her.
The old lady lay in bed and needed someone to take care of her. The brothers and sisters discussed it and decided to take turns to take care of her for five days each.
The three people in the city are not convenient to come back to take care of the baby, so they can pay 1,000 yuan each to ask their brothers and sisters in their hometown to help take care of the baby.
At the beginning, no one had any objection to this matter. After all, no one knew what would happen in the future, and everyone was in good physical condition at that time, so they agreed to this plan.
However, as time went on, the situation became more and more difficult. It is not an easy task to take care of an elderly person who is paralyzed in bed for a long time. It requires great patience and physical strength.
And as the old lady's health condition deteriorated, her weight gradually increased, making it more challenging for everyone to move her.
Despite this, everyone still tried their best to take care of her, but inevitably felt overwhelmed.
So, Zhang Weishuang was the first to quit. Except for the five days when she had to serve, she refused to do anything else.
Zhang Weifen lived far away from home, and she only took care of herself for five days.
For the rest of the time, Zhang Weibao was the only one who served her. He had a good temper and was very patient. However, after a long time, Wang Fuzi couldn't stand it anymore. Wasn't this obviously bullying her man?
Zhang Weibao works in a coal mine, which already places him under a lot of pressure. Now he has to take care of patients, and his body simply can't take it.
In less than two months, a rift had arisen between the brothers and sisters. Wang Fuzi disliked that Zhang Weishuang and Zhang Weifen did not serve the old lady wholeheartedly. They did not even wash the old lady's face or change her clothes every day. The old lady was now dirty and smelly, and it was always her husband who cleaned up.
Zhang Yonggui and Li Baoneng also had opinions about Wang Fuzi. As the saying goes, raising sons is a way to prepare for old age, and it should be the sons and daughters-in-law who take care of their parents-in-law. Now they have to use them, the daughters who married out. They feel uncomfortable.
Once the conflict arose, the three people from the city had to go back. Zhang Weiren was unwilling to serve the old man no matter what because his waist was not good and he was also a male chauvinist. However, he was willing to pay more.
Zhang Weiren raised his salary to 1,500 yuan and asked Zhang Weibao to serve him. Zhang Weibao was very happy to do so. After all, this was all his salary at work.
As a daughter, Zhang Weifang stayed to take care of the old lady for a few days. During the day, it was fine. She just had to change the old lady's cushion on time.
It's not the same at night. The old lady feels uncomfortable all over. She can't sleep all night and keeps crying out in pain. She cries out in pain wherever you touch her.
The old lady didn't sleep every night, and the people who served her couldn't sleep well either. They had no energy during the day. So, after a long time, Zhang Weifang began to feel exhausted.
The same goes for Zhang Weicun. At the beginning, he showed filial piety and gave his mother a good bath and changed her into new clothes. Gradually, he became more and more irritable and stayed awake every day, which was unbearable for anyone.
Zhang Weifang has a deep understanding of the saying, "There are no filial sons by the bedside of a long-term patient." Sometimes, it's not that children are unfilial, but rather that caring for a sick parent for a long time is truly exhausting.
Every day, we have to face tedious nursing work, such as turning over, wiping the body, feeding, etc. This requires not only patience and carefulness, but also strong physical support.
Being under such pressure for a long time can easily make people feel tired and powerless.
In addition, long-term care for patients will also affect one's personal life and work, making it impossible to socialize, rest and entertain normally, posing a serious threat to the caregiver's physical and mental health.
In this situation, even if one is filial in heart, the physical and mental exhaustion is unbearable.
Fortunately, we only serve five days a month, otherwise everyone would have collapsed.
