24439, Elderly
Posted by guest, Tue May-16-00 08:39 AM
Yes, we need to make sure the children of today and tomorrow are on the right path, but we also need to help the elderly. I have visited nursing homes and there are elderly people who have been thrown in these nursing homes to die. Family members do not visit or call. Sometimes when me and my mother go to visit a friend of hers, I always make it a point to stop in other people rooms, just to say hi. They just need to know they are still valued. The elderly feel left out and society does not care. We let the older generations die without realizing all of the widsom and knowledge that goes with them. Especially in the black community. Grannies and Granddaddies have a lot to offer us as young men and women, and we need to take advantage of that.
