Frustrations set in whenever your body parts no longer perform the way they did when you were younger. So many do’s and don’ts begin to pile up over time to maintain a healthy body more so if one gets older.
Mother had thrombosis in her right leg. It meant there’s blood clot in the blood vessel blocking the flows of blood. She used to stand for longer periods when younger since we had an eatery business and it resulted to her having varicose veins. She doesn’t refuse or fail to do household chores supposed to be done by younger members of the family. It’s just born out of habit and when advised to cut down on doing so many things she’d been doing regularly for decades already, you could sense her dilemma on whether to slow down or not.
Well, knowing her – I’m sure common sense will prevail eventually.
