Huang Yue-sui reportedly lost 9 kilograms in three months after a misdiagnosis caused her to take the wrong medication. Friends joked that she had used weight-loss injections, but she said that was not the case.
The degenerative process in older adults is almost like falling off a cliff, so it is better to maintain some extra weight.
Huang said her personal principles were not to exercise, diet or pursue cosmetic treatments. She argued that older adults should avoid becoming too thin because declining immunity and muscle loss can make illness more dangerous.
She also urged families to treat older relatives with respect and patience. Several older people had told her that poor eyesight or hearing loss often led younger relatives to shout impatiently, respond coldly or ignore them.
Therefore, besides not discriminating against older people, whatever the motive, care for elderly family members should be respectful and spoken in a gentle tone.
Huang advised them not to take such treatment too personally and to keep their spirits up. She said the younger relatives who behave disrespectfully will also grow old.
I always comfort them by saying they should not take it too seriously, but relax and work toward becoming centenarians, so they may have the chance to see what karma looks like, because those shameless younger relatives will also grow old.
