My possessions spread before my eyes. My relationships are also coming to an end. But I am living a hellish life lonely and hungry.
My husband is retired from government job. I also worked in a private company. Both of us worked hard and added property to our only son. We made him study as he wanted. We ended up marrying the girl we wanted. When he had two children, we transferred all our properties to his name.
However, after my husband died two years ago, my son and daughter-in-law started treating me like a burden. As long as he was there, those who had never lacked in respect and love for me, would never wear a shirt after him. Even so, I do not burden them. I am healthy enough to take care of my own affairs. Apart from food, I don’t have any expenses like pills and medicine. A couple of times a year, my heart is filled with new clothes that I buy for festivals. However, I don’t understand why my daughter-in-law thinks I’m a burden.
My grandson and granddaughter were my comfort. But the son and daughter-in-law admitted them to the hostel in the convent. I didn’t even beg. ‘I am going to start a new business. I can’t pay attention to spots now. I sent that to the hostel. We can take our home decisions at our convenience. Daughter-in-law said, ‘I can’t take it for your convenience.’
In this case, near the street where we live, my son built a big house. He built it by selling a property that my husband and I had put together for him. But instead of taking me there, he left me alone in the old house. Many people in the town said, ‘What’s wrong with you that you miss your mother at home in her old age?’ After hearing that, the son and daughter-in-law did not feel sorry. No pity… I don’t even have the mercy of sin.
My son and daughter-in-law have arranged to give me three meals at a local hotel. I suffer from many health problems due to constant eating of fast food, and even when I am hungry, I go to bed after drinking only water. Could not live together despite having relations. All accumulated wealth is lost in old age. I am 65 years old and living is my punishment. What do I do?
