Sejak akhir-akhir ini, posting Instagram cef selebriti Datuk Redzuan Ismail atau Chef Wan sering berkisarkan perkembangan ibunya, Noraini Abdullah atau Cik Ani yang semakin uzur akibat beberapa penyakit termasuklah Alzheimer, dimentia dan kanser.
Good morning after feeding my mom her breakfast is time for a slow walk about 2 to 3 times even in the house in the day so that it help her blood circulation and muscle from being stiff.
Off course she not happy we have her do all this excercise and abit of persuading too.
U can see by her unhappy pissed off face but we need to still encourage her to walk.
Some children just leave their parent to sit infront of the TV or lie down on the bed all day and that is not going to help as their leg will become swollen as their no blood flowing after a while.
I tell u caring for a 90 year old dimentia person is never easy.
Worst with Alzheimer diseases and cancer on top of that.
Their brain that normally function to tell them to pick up even simple thing like the spoon to feed themselves they cannot do that as in my mother case now.
At time she just stared at the plate and do nothing.
That because the brain that sent the signal to pick the spoon and eat is no longer functioning anymore.
All her personal toilet job has to be done by us both.
She no longer know what to do.
Even nak ikat kain sendiri pun dia tak tahu.
These are all the advance stage of dimentia and Alzheimer that made us all suffering totally useless and having to depend on others assistants.
My mom is right now at these stage..
Eventually she might not even recognised any of us by then.
Thank god despite all this that is happening to her life she is not in what so ever pain.
By i have several strong pain killer that the Dr has given to me to help her manage her pain.
So belum lagi.
I told some of my sister and bro about her condition that they should spent some quality time with her.
As always masing2 pun start pointing fingers that so and so should also be asked to jaga mother.
Mcm2 excuse…..its always the same simblings.
I am like….suka hati kau orang la.
Bila time emak punya birthday party berduyun duyun yang sampai.
Bila time mcm ini baik emak bapak atau anak2 mereka tak kan kita nak pi sembah suruh datang menziarahi emak itu?
Ludah di langit memang timpa di muka sendiri orang kata.
This happened in so many other families.
Some even worst!
They need to WAKE UP!
Melalui posting di Instagram, Chef Wan memaklumkan keadaan ibunya semakin memburuk sehingga ke tahap tidak mampu untuk menyuap makanannya sendiri. Malah urusan ke tandas juga perlu dibantu oleh dia dan pembantunya.
“Dalam kes ibu saya sekarang, dia sudah tidak mampu menyuap makanannya sendiri. Dia hanya merenung pinggan dantidak buat apa-apa. Itu kerana otaknya yang memberi isyarat untuk memilih sudu dan makan sudah tidak berfungsi lagi.”
Tambah Chef Wan lagi, ibu tersayang sudah tidak mampu untuk menguruskan diri sendiri termasuklah hendak mengikat kainnya sendiri. Namun begitu, sebagai anak, Chef Wan sentiasa berada di sisi ibu tersayang dan sering berkongsi perkembangan ibu tersayang di laman Instagram miliknya. Malah Chef Wan berkongsi video ibu tersayang melakukan senaman ringan di halaman rumahnya sambil dibantu oleh jururawat peribadinya.
Tambah Chef Wan lagi, penghidap Alzheimer sememangnya terpaksa bergantung dengan orang lain kerana mereka tidak mampu untuk mengruuskan diri sendiri.
Untuk rekod, antara personaliti atau pemimpin negara yang turut berhadapan dengan penyakit Alzheimer termasuklah mantan Perdana Menteri Malaysia, Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
Team NONA mendoakan semoga urusan Chef Wan menjaga ibu tersayang dipermudahkan. Sesungguhnya besar pahala anak yang menjaga ibubapa mereka. Syukur kerana di beri peluang merasai nikmat menjaga ibu bapa selagi mereka masih ada.
