I just saw the picture of my parents together with my younger sister who is already 22 years old. It was posted in Facebook. I noticed how my parents have changed a lot. Both mom and dad had grown more gray hairs and wrinkles and they both lost weight compared to the last time I saw them. I have not seen them since I graduated in College and that was like 4 years ago. They look too old in the picture. I suddenly felt this sudden urge to see them. I have been very busy with work and my career plus with my own family. I just gave birth 4 months ago and then was back to work in just one month. SUddenly it feels like I'm running out of time and I have to see them soon. I don't know why. Maybe I just miss them so much. Or maybe I'm scared of something else. Mom just called about two weeks ago. She was confined again because of her rheumatic heart fever and hypertension plus she is diabetic. Then just yesterday Mom told me Dad is in bad shape. His pneumonia was back. My sister said something about my dad's lungs vibrating and it has affected his stomach and digestive system. I wonder when I will see them again. I'm pregnant again and will give birth this August. Hope I will be able to see them after I give birth. How about you? How long have you not seen your parents? Do you also feel the same way sometimes?
