family- mother out-law
within a year of my stroke, my my mother-outlaw was afflicted with a series of minor strokes that renders the onset of dementia. her inherent diabetic condition also appreciably accelerated the festering of cataracts in her eyes making her almost blind. poor woman, at one stage, she was just sliding her body on the tiled floor and at numerous intervals demanding to go up. up to where we don't know as our house is a single storey bungalow. she was incoherent in other ways, always whining and shouting,but this woman had spirit,as evidenced by her continuous effort to move around unaided, these efforts inevitably leads to a number of falls which normally results in bleeding in some part of her head necessitating several visits to the emergency unit of the putrajaya hospital. i positively believe that a lot of her whining were desperate cries for attention and her inherent character of being the supremely ultimate drama queen. notwithstanding, i wouldn't wish dementia on anyone, my god it's so sad, distressing and unnerving. i instructed my second son to shoot me, if ever i descend into such a condition.mind you, i couldn't help but wonder why did old age so incapacitated her,millions of other people also grow old but never deteroriate like her,what great sin had she perpetuated???, in god's realm, the greatest sin is shirik,i.e. placing others on par with god,is there something unknown and unislamic which she had plunged in,like having a jin in her in order to always be radiant and attractive??? this i believe is quite common among royalties who are in decline.. wallahualam
