Taken from life. “My wife wants to put my parents in a nursing home and sell their apartment”: I can't agree

I felt blood pulsing in my temples. < img src = "https://zycie.news/crrops/c2a587/620x0/1/0/2025/02/09/q5r0RSFKRTTT0M67A4A4A8U7KMCNWNKNKNTV2Y5NWQWNR.jpg" alt = "from life taken." Quot; wife wants to put my parents in a nursing home and sell their apartment & quot;: I can't agree to it " styles = "background-color: rgba (145,129,109.0.56)" > < p > I stood in the living room, clenching my hands into my fists, looking at my wife, which & oacute; randomlessly browned some documents. She was calm, as if she talked about something completely normal, like a new wall color or holiday plans.

< p > — This is the best solution, Paweł & AMP; MDASH; She said, not even looking at me. & Amp; MDASH; After all, you see that your parents are not doing anymore.

< p > I felt blood pulsating in my temples.

< p > — They can't cope ? it's my parents, Magda! They raised me, they looked after me all my life. And now you just want them & Hellip; give ? like used furniture ?

< p > sighed as if she had dealt with an unreasonable child.

< P >& Amp; MDASH; Don't overdo it. It's not like we throw them into the pavement. A nursing home is a good place. There they will have professional care, rehabilitation, everything they need. < p > — But they don't want to go there! < p > — Because they are stubborn! & Amp; MDASH; She raised her voice, and anger flashed in her eyes. & Amp; MDASH; You think that I enjoy it ? that I want to go & oacute; 63 ~ but we cannot subordinate all my life to your parents! < p > I knew it was a matter of clean calculation for her. If my parents go to the nursing home, their apartment can be sold. Large, spacious, in a good location & ndash; worth a fortune. And we ? We could pay off the loan, buy a new car & oacute; d, live more conveniently.

< p > but how could I do it to them ?

< p > Mother took her whole life, sacrificed me, never thought about herself. Father & Hellip; Although harsh, he was a man on whom I could always count on & oacute; And now I was to tell them that their own son did not want them in their own home ?

< p > I sat down hard on the couch, hiding my face in my hands.

< p > — I can't do it, magda. < p > — So you want us to look after them for the rest of our lives ? change their diapers, go to doctors with them, make sure that they do not leave the house and do not get lost ?

< p > — If you need & hellip;

< p > — You are naive — She said cold. & Amp; MDASH; You will be alone with it, because I do not intend to give up my own life.

< p > I looked at her and suddenly I understood that there was a gap between us, which & oacute; Rej could not be overwhelmed.

< p > for me they were my parents.

< p > for her & ndash; only obstacle.

< p > and I was supposed to make a choice that will break either their hearts or my own.
