Perhaps I`m too young, perhaps I´m too old ..
My mother is a 60++ and often need some help (to visit a doctor and/or to check something in a hospital)
Two weeks ago we (without my help she did not know how to be there without a taxi (and without my help she had to pay the taxi - I was lazy and was a day off), were in an hospital and had to ask where to go and the rest, the doctor asked for more informations - and I answered, ok, no problems, I`ll send you a mail this afternoon -
no!! Send me a fax!!
A fax? Ok, all people 60++ have a fax, all their sons and daughters have a fax at home - are you crazy?
I`m young and old enough to send a fax via internet (and problems were solved) - but what would have happened to my mother without knowing how to do this?
Watching the world and the problems through the eyes of my mother (I try, perhaps I can see or understand only 50 % of the problems) - shiver, goosebumps
