my parents worked all their lives and barely made a living. we all squeezed in two room (NOT two-bedroom, just two rooms, kitchen, bathroom) apartment, 41sq meters, 4 people. my parents working, later on mum was on government benefits, partially crippled in an accident, my brother working since school, not able to afford even to rent a room, me at school and then uni. where do you imagine an old person would fit in here? who would care for them and how?

even now i do not know if i could take care of my parents. i live comfortably and i could easily afford help here in DR but would my parents leave poland at old age and come to live in DR? they do not speak languages, they have never been abroad, they know no one here.

i think about all this every day. my parents are getting older, my brother is getting weirder (long story, don't ask).
