Dear son,

The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health, have patience and try to understand me.

If I get dirty when eating, if I can not dress, have patience and remember the hours I   1teaching it to you. If, when I speak to you, I   2the same things thousand and one times, do not   3me, listen to me. When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story   4you got to sleep. When I do not want to have a   5, neither shame me nor scold me. Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I   6, in order that you wanted to bathe. When you see my   7little about new technologies, give me the necessary time and do not look at me with your mocking(嘲弄) smile. I taught you   8to do so many things: to eat good, to dress well, to confront life…. When at some moment I lose the memory or the   9of our conversation, let me have the necessary time to remember, and if I cannot do it, do not become nervous, as the most important thing is not our conversation but surely to be with you and to have you   10to me.

If ever I do not want to eat, do not force me. I know well   11I need to and when not. When my   12legs do not allow me to walk, give me your   13, the same way I did when you gave your first   14. And when someday I say to you that I do not want to   15any more ---- that I want to rest forever, do not get angry. Someday you will understand.

Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived. Some day you will discover that,  16my mistakes, I always wanted the   17thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way for you. You must not feel sad, angry or impotent(无可奈何) for seeing me   18you. You must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as I did it when you   19living. Help me to walk, help me to end my way with love and   20. I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you.

I love you, Son.
