Father’s fate
Around that time, my father's health was gradually deteriorating .
Before we knew it, it had reached a critical situation .
It was difficult to move around , and he was in the worst condition with a
severe cough and high fever . Then one day , a call came to the school w
here I was teaching that my father was in critical condition .
I ran home . Immediately I took a taxi with my father .
I still vividly remember feeling sad when I saw my father suffering from
shortness of breath in a taxi on the way to Andong Seongsu Hospital .
At that time, I thought to myself, 'Father, please return quickly .' I still fe
el sorry for what I said even after so many years .
' If you're going through such a painful experience, just leave in peace .' I
t was a sad thought, but ...
I regret having that feeling even for a moment, even after a long time .
' Hehehe ... Hehehehe ... Father , I'm sorry .'
My father was rushed into the intensive care unit and soon regained stab
ility .
But the doctor said, 'You won't last more than a day .' It was like this .
My mother kept me close to my father ,
Finally, when I was out of breath, my mother gently pushed me so that I
could hold my father's hand . I felt sorry for my brother, but because my
father cared for me the most when he was alive , I guess my mother wan
ted me to receive my father's maintenance directly .
My father had a hard time giving me some advice .
“ People must learn without knowing . Oh Seok-ah , you are intelligent ,
so if you just work a little, you will be able to do well in no time . Must le
QR
arn . Must learn ... ”
