At 19 pm on June 23, my mother-in-law left forever, leaving very straightforwardly.
In the last month of my mother-in-law's life, she frequently went to and from the hospital. In fact, no treatment is needed, but she has always been a very thoughtful person.
I think even the strongest person is afraid of the moment when her life ends. We can only work with her as she wishes.
My aunt returned to China as soon as she was unblocked from Shanghai, and it was less than a month. Fortunately, I was able to stay with my mother and send her the last journey.
I remember the morning when my mother-in-law left, my husband called me when I was at work and said that my mother-in-law told him to discharge the hospital. If you should hurry up or it would be too late.
Because my mother-in-law just asked us to take her to the hospital the day before, and the next day she "argued" to be discharged.
I was thinking that my husband said, maybe she felt that she was dying. My husband called me and asked me to go home quickly.
drive home. When I get home, my mother-in-law's sister has arrived, standing by her bed, holding her hand.
My mother-in-law is skinny and her mouth is open and can't close, but she is conscious.
I walked up to her and asked her: "Mom, do you want me to help you clean your body?" She shook her head and said: No. She told me in a very faint voice and movement that she was going to wait for Juanzi to come back, that is, her daughter, my sister-in-law, and she asked me to call her and ask where she was.
I asked my sister-in-law where she was, and she told me that she was going to find the "master". My mother-in-law is a devout Buddhist son for more than ten years and is very familiar with the abbot in the temple. Like her family, at the last moment of her life. My sister said she was on the way to pick her up.
This is my husband asking me to clean the room with him. I guess my mother-in-law is leaving today. The room will be arranged, and I will simply clean the room to entertain guests.
Time is coming soon, and relatives at home will arrive one after another. My mother-in-law has heard the news. My mother-in-law likes to make friends throughout her life, and she has all kinds of friends. After a while, the room was filled with people.
I looked at my mother-in-law and she urged me to make a call in a few minutes. I had to take out my phone for a few minutes and call my sister-in-law to ask where I was.
After about half an hour, we finally waited for the abbot and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. I looked at my mother-in-law and felt relieved. The abbot in the cassock followed behind the car on an electric donkey. After a brief look at the door, I arranged for my mother-in-law to recite scriptures, which made my mother-in-law feel even more happy.
My sister also started to fetch water to bathe her mother-in-law. My sister always felt guilty for not washing her hair in the morning. My mother-in-law is too weak now and can't even wash her hair because she can't stand the greater movement.
I help with washing clothes and changing clothes. After doing all this, everyone gathered around and whispered.
My mother-in-law feels that she will stop this at any time, but she is very clear-headed. She kept telling her mother-in-law, and later said, Mom, you just blink if you think so.
My mother-in-law blinked to indicate that she was awake, but she was very weak. I thought there were still many things I hadn't finished at work.
If my mother-in-law left today, I would have been unable to go to work for several days, so I quickly drove to the company and arranged what I had at hand while my mother-in-law was still there.
Around 6 pm, when I was about to finish my meal, my husband called me to go home for dinner. I quickly finished the work, asked the leader for instructions, and rushed home.
Relatives were having supper, so did I. I simply took a few bites and went to my mother-in-law's room to see her, which was the same as in the morning. My face was bloodless, I was panting with my mouth open, my eyes were filled with dimness, and there was a sad atmosphere around me.
About 20 minutes later, I heard my sister-in-law shouting loudly: "Sister, sister, everyone is around. My mother-in-law has passed away. Before leaving, mother-in-law told me, don't cry."
I don't believe that my mother-in-law has really left and kept talking to her. My sister told her that she was really leaving, and she arranged for someone to go to the temple to pick up the abbot.
After a while, the abbot came and began to help us to the door, telling us that my mother-in-law had already confessed before her death. She left, and the abbot only allowed her to sort it out, so we had to obey the abbot's arrangement. I also handed the thing to the abbot, but my mother-in-law closed her eyes but didn't close her mouth.The abbot asked her husband to help her, but it didn't work out for a long time.
Finally, the abbot closed it with a tissue. My mother-in-law really left, and we couldn't bear to leave her. What's more, she's just doing it straightforwardly.
My mother-in-law is smart, strong, and strong all her life. The most capable woman I have ever met in my life belongs to her. She has his own opinions, but she is more admiration from the bottom of her heart. My mother-in-law is different from an ordinary person.
father-in-law suffered a stroke more than ten years ago, and his mother-in-law has always been there. Basically, our mother-in-law has the final say, but from the end of her illness, she didn't say anything to us, didn't even say a word, and didn't say anything at home.
I can't guess what her old man thought. May my mother-in-law go all the way, and the rest of us will be down-to-earth and firm, and I hope she can feel at ease.
