My parents have done very many sacrifices to bring me up and my brother, and a sister. They are now not living in their country not with us. Actaually both of our parents are on a foreign land for over 18 years. Well, this was not their own choice. They had no option at that time. My parents could not get high education because of some family financial reasons. In my country they could not do what they could get at that time as per their education. Also the job they were getting was not paying enough to bring up three children. My dad chose to move out so that we could get a better education and life.

It was tough for my mom to take care of everything all by her self. None of us could help her much as well. But she really fought back to every situation to make us comfortable. My parents did not want us to move to the country where my dad was now. They were determined to keep us with our people and in our culture which was safe as comparision to the other. Time started to pass by and we grew young. Our demands increased with time. My mom always fulfilled our reasonable wants. She always celebrated our birthdays and took us on trips in our holidays. I am the eldest child so i started to understand everything gradually. I strated to take some work burden from my mom. helped her with coking, washing and in running other errands.

When I was in my tenth grade my mom feel sick. She was so sick that she could not toss in her bed. the doctors said she had a severe back pain and she neede a complete bed rest. I was not ready fo cooking and my mom never took favors from people or relatives. She still some how managed to do everything. My dad used to call every day to talk to mom. In heart of hearts I started to feel guilty. I felt as if my parents were in the situation beacuse we were their liability. I really wanted to do something for them.

Three of us love our mom. My mom is a very sensitive woman who can not hurt anybody or get hurt. I moved to college and made lot of friends. My brother and sister started to get exposed to new things in the world. We started to exlore things and got busy. So busy that we forgot about our mom to an extent. She never metioned her lonliness to us thinking she would interrupt. She started to miss dad even more. She used to cry sometimes and sound upset. Her situation could not go unnoticed any longer. We thought my mom should go to our dad. Now we were grown ups to take care of our selves. But my mom and dad were not comfortable with the idea of leaving us alone.

We had a party in our house to celebrate my sister's birthday. All of our relatives were invited. My mom shared our thought we her brother and said that she disagreed with it. My uncle really respects my mom and offered her to take care of us. But she did not want to take the big step just in a haste. She wanted to think over it some more.

After some weeks my dad called up and informed that he was not well. He had an heart attack and was in the hospital for last 3 days. My mom started to cry thinking she could not see him or take care of him at that moment. I knew I had to do something. After few days my dad started to improve but he was still alone. I talked to my uncle and he talked to my mother to go to my dad. My brother and sister wanted her to go and take care of him. Next day when my dad called up my mom expressed her intention to come to him. He health was improving now. My dad said talke to all of us to find if it was alright with everybody. After being convienced he started the processand in a month she was there with him. My mom meet my dad after year and half. We were now with our uncle. My parents called up regularly.

We all are happy that they are together now. But I know that my mom is not happy still. She missed her husband when she was with us and now she misses her children when she is there. She always mention that we would be together soon for ever. But I know my dad would not get a job at his age and we would never want our dad to be alone with a risk of heart attack. We all pray to god to give us strength to live in the situation.
