Q6: Would you recommend a gift for my mother?
My mother was born on Buddha's birthday. This year I'd like to give her a special gift because I owe her a lot. Even though she is over 70, every morning she comes to my home to take care of my son. In winter, I feel so sorry for her because it's dark and cold. Sometimes I am worried what if she slipped on the ice. Is there anything special gift that she will be happy to get?

Hi April,
Your mother sounds like a wonderful woman. I have stopped buying presents for my mother because she says she doesn't want 'things' to clutter up her home now. My sister and I usually go together with her to get our hair styled, a manicure or some other beauty treatment and take her for a nice lunch. It seems to make her happy so maybe you can do something that with your mom.
I totally agree with Nicole's opinion.
The senior citizens usually seek out attention and care from others. In addition to the nice gift(anything would be ok), why don't you have a great event in which every family members enjoy for your mom?
Hi April,
I know how you feel about her, because I lived with my mother before she went to a nursing home.
Last July, she had a second heart attack. She was hospitalized for 4 months and was moved into that nursing home, because she can't stand and go to bathroom alone. Fortunately, the nursing home is not far from my house, within 10 minutes' drive. Anyway she likes new clothings. Whenever she is given a new cloth, she always says she doesn't want more. But I know she really loves it. I can hear her make brag of it.
Hi, April.
What a coincidence! My birthday also falls on April 8 by lunar calendar like your mom's. You've got a nice mom, I guess. I think eating out with all your family will be a great pleasure to your mom. And how about giving some money as a gift.. The more, the better. HHHHHHH.
I envy you a lot. Actually my mother was also very great but she passed away last year. If she were still alive, I would like to give her everything I have. Today I'm really miss her. How about preparing her bithday meal by yourself? She must be very happy even though it is not all sorts of delicacies.
