I have a grandmother who has her own studio apartment. She lives there alone and I suggested she look for a good nursing home. She would move there and my husband and I would have our own place to live with our future child. But my grandmother only responded with indignation and hysteria
It so happened that I was only 18 years old and I found out that I was pregnant. My lover made me a marriage proposal and went to work to earn money.
But finances are scarce, we sometimes don’t have enough for the essentials. My lover is trying his best, because he wants our baby to have everything he needs. I didn’t know where to find the strength. I was desperate, because we don’t have our own place, and the child needs normal living conditions. But soon I came up with a way out of this situation.
I have a grandmother who has her own studio apartment. She lives there alone and I suggested that she look for a good nursing home. She would move there, and my husband and I would have our own place. But my grandmother only responded with indignation and hysteria.
Why does she refuse to understand that this is the best thing for everyone? It is difficult for her to take care of herself, and there is no place to wait for help, because she lives by herself. She will be cared for there, she will have friends, and she will have a lot more fun.
I realized that I would have to talk to her again. I will try to explain and tell her that nursing homes are well cared for and she won’t be able to say no to me. We are all human, it just takes a different approach for each one.
I’m thinking about the baby we’re about to have. We don’t have our own place, but he needs somewhere to grow up and learn? He needs his own home! And Grandma would be much better off in an institution.
