went to the nursing home to see how my father was getting on. he's been there for 2 weeks & seemed to have settled in nicely. the skin sutures have been removed & he moves around on a wheelchair now. the helpers normally feed him his meals, but when we are there, my mum would do that. however, we were pleasantly surprised by the boy's caring gesture....
before we left, i asked him to offer a prayer for kung-kung & he did that without hesitation. & as if to prove that wasn't a flash in the pan, he even volunteered this as well...
i have to say i'm totally overwhelmed by this display of concern & responsibility. & you know what? i couldn't have done better myself.
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. "Honor your father and mother"—which is the first commandment with a promise— "that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth." ephesians 6:1-3

You are indeed blessed to have a loving boy! AT
Action speaks Louder than words. Hope your dad will be up and walking really soon.
AT,
our family is truly blessed to have him & we thank God for him. on the premise of eph 6:1-3 alone, i know he will live to a ripe old age helping others.
Iml,
thanks. he will have an xray in 3 weeks time, & if all goes well, he will mobilise with a walking frame.
We've got a lot to learn in life..even from little kids.
You & Mrs Doc have brought him up well.
Will keep your dad in my prayers for a blessed recovery.
God bless!
Hi Doc, thats a very heart warming picture, your son helping, caring for grand dad.
I'm sure grand dad appreciated it....made his day.
Not many young kids will do that.
Hope your dad is doing well.

Uncle Lee,
i know the boy is special. my rather rarely smiles after being afflicted with parkinsonism, but he managed to get my father to break into a wide grin when he talks/jokes/shows childish antics during our visits.
you keep well, too,& please continue to keep us all amused with your adventures (tall tales??)
Mich,
we just look after him, but he belongs to the Lord.
Yup, am doing the study on Exodus now Ex 20:12 says "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you."
Keropok Man,
it's the only commandment with a premise.
Gob bless!
Proverbs 17 v 6
Chidren's children are a crown to the aged,
and parents are the pride of their children
Just me,
thanks. God bless!
