Spare a thought for the sick
I had decided not to write this week due to my mother’s hospitalisation that has got me a bit worried and busy shuttling between my Abule Egba home in Lagos and her location in Otta, Ogun State.
Even when we drive past a hospital, not many of us spare a thought for those battling for their lives for various ailments. You see people who are normally agile lying helplessly, unable to speak or move parts of their bodies. That’s the moment you realise that being healthy should not be taken for granted and everything possible should be done to stay healthy unless in situation beyond our control.
My son who was in the hospital with me said, seeing how spouses have to care for their partner in the hospital, especially those who are incapacitated made him to understand the full meaning of the marriage vow of ‘for better for worse in health and in wealth.’
