Love Letters to the Elderly

Dr. S, a geriatrician, predominantly treats elderly patients. According to Dr. S, the elderly often go unnoticed and are even ignored in society. Many hold the misconception that it's natural for older individuals to face physical limitations, cognitive decline, and become burdensome to their families, ultimately ending up in nursing homes. However, the truth is that the elderly still possess immense potential. With a little care, patience, and exploration of their difficulties and underlying reasons, it's possible to improve their symptoms and quality of life. By implementing elderly-friendly community facilities, enhanced elderly care services, and supportive government policies, we can offer the elderly more choices and provide them with a true sense of belonging in their old age. It is the shared goal of those involved in elderly affairs to work towards this vision. These true stories aim to not only impart medical knowledge and caregiving skills but also to touch readers' hearts, reminding them to value the people and things they may have overlooked or forgotten and cherish everything they have.
