I did. When I was at home, I used to cut the nails of my grand father, comb my garandma's hair, made coffee for them, got medicine for them, and a lot of things. I like to be with old people and enjoy listening them.
Have you ever helped your grand parents? How did you feel it? Did you ever thought that taking care of old people is a burden?

I'd love to help and take care of my grandparents but unfortunately, I don't have the chance to do so because they passed away even before I was born. For people whose grandparents are still alive, you're lucky guys. Take care of them and love them because most grandparents are already old and they only have a little time left in this world. Wouldn't it be nice if you could spend some quality time with them?

I kinda liked my grandparents. They were very old but quite active, my grandmother especially so.

I had the chance to help care for my grandfather when he was paralyzed due to road accident. He went to stay home with us for a few months for constant check up physical therapy. I used to cut his fingernails and make him something to drink aside from preparing food for us that would also be good for him. It's never a burden to take care of old people as long as you have the patience and the understanding and much loving because most of the time old people especially those who are sick are very stubborn and irritable. and if ever you be a grand parent someday just wish the younger ones will not ignore you.
