When Xiao Pinghai and Cheng Shuai turned around and walked into the house, they asked Cheng Shuai: "What? Auntie has Alzheimer's disease? Don't make jokes like me."

Cheng Shuai closed the door and said, "You can't see it now. If you came a week ago, you will feel it. If you say that my mother's recent memory always has problems. When I first installed the Internet TV, I taught her fifty or sixty times in a month, but she couldn't remember how to play it back. Even if I was a little thinner, she wouldn't match the number of me in my memory. Alas, what does the joke you just said mean?"

At this time, Zhou Li and Cheng Shuai's mother packed the dishes and bowls in the kitchen to wash them. Xiao Pinghai didn't have to worry that Cheng Shuai's mother felt uncomfortable when she heard words such as Alzheimer's disease. Hao Jun was already sitting on the sofa and changing the station with the remote control. Xiao Pinghai also sat down on the sofa and talked about his mother's affairs.

Only then did Hao Jun and Cheng Shuai realize why Zhou Li said she wanted to see her aunt instead of her uncle. It turned out that Zhou Li's uncle, Xiao Pinghai's father, passed away a few years ago.

Xiao Pinghai’s current workplace is thousands of miles away from his mother’s house. Except for the Chinese New Year and the holidays, he rarely goes to see his mother. He calls him every ten or eight days to greet him. That day he called his mother’s house: “Mom, what are you busy with?”

"Where are you looking at the moon on the windowsill? Are you off work?"

After chatting for a while, my mother said, "You are very tired after working for a day. Hurry up and have a meal and take a break."

When Xiao Pinghai heard Xiao Pinghai hung up the phone and his girlfriend was washing clothes in the bathroom said, "Did your mother look at the moon on the windowsill again? The sun is still early after get off work. I can't even see where the moon is in such a bright day. Your mother's eyes are good enough."

"My mother doesn't have much education, and she may not be able to find the right words to say to me, so she often repeats that sentence. Anyway, I just ask for peace, and it doesn't matter what my mother says."

"I'm worried about something wrong with your mother's mind. The last time you called, she first said she was watching the moon on the windowsill. Then she said it was cloudy and it was going to rain heavily. So cloudy that way, where can I find the moon? Do you still remember the old man mentioned on TV yesterday?"

The old man mentioned on TV started to lose all his life several years ago. He just did something and said something, but he didn't remember it in a blink of an eye. He remembered it clearly about things many years ago. He often repeated it and couldn't grasp the key points. Otherwise, he wouldn't find the right words to express his meaning. His family thought it was because of his age. Since last year, he has almost no memory of anything, he is not very good at speaking, he is no longer enthusiastic about people, and he is restless all day long until he can't take care of himself. His family has accompanied him to the hospital. It is already in the middle and late stages of Alzheimer's disease.

After reminding her girlfriend, Xiao Pinghai also felt that her mother had some symptoms of Alzheimer's disease on the phone, so she decided to take two days off to accompany her mother to the hospital for an evaluation and examination. Of course, it can only be said to be a routine physical examination. After all, the words "Alzheimer's disease" made anyone uncomfortable to hear it. He could only fool him for a while if he said "Alzheimer's disease".

My mother was very excited when she saw him home, but she refused to go to the hospital. She also gave several examples to show that the disease was diagnosed, and she would be scared to death if it was found out. As long as she didn't feel uncomfortable, she would resolutely not enter the hospital.

Xiao Pinghai did some "study" about Alzheimer's disease in advance. He carefully observed that his mother combing her hair, brushing her teeth, dressing, making phone calls, and taking the bus was normal, but something was wrong when cooking. She would almost say to herself before every dish was cooked: "Have you put salt?" She kept talking to herself when she was a child, and she didn't mention anything about the things in recent years. As she said this, she suddenly jumped to another thing, and after talking, she didn't know what she was going to say.

Xiao Pinghai breathed a little relieved. Although his mother had symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, it was not too serious. Since she didn't want to go to the hospital, it might be difficult for her to take medicine. She should go back and ask the doctor and the Internet for advice and use psychotherapy.

My mother has two southern bedrooms, and she lives in one by herself. Xiao Pinghai lives in the other. Both southern bedrooms have bay windows, which are the windows protruding outside the building, with glass on three sides, and the windowsills are about the same size as single beds.

That night, Xiao Pinghai sat up and looked up at the moon in the sky. It was indeed very different from standing in front of the window and looking at the moon. It was like melting himself into the night sky. No wonder my mother always said to look at the moon on the windowsill.

After Xiao Pinghai returned, he spent several days of spare time asking doctors and comprehensive online methods. He downloaded a lot of children's songs from his mother when he was a child. It is said that it would make his mother recall the carefreeness of her childhood and straighten out the memories step by step. These children's songs became the background music for Xiao Pinghai to call his mother.

Xiao Pinghai also sorted out a lot of jokes and puzzle games related to his mother's previous work. When he was calling, he was no longer so bored. He also persuaded his mother to watch TV less, participate in more community activities, and add more hobbies. When he heard that his mother started learning square dance, he quickly looked for jokes and puzzle games related to square dance. When his mother started growing flowers, he quickly found jokes and puzzle games related to growing flowers. Not only did this make his mother feel interesting, but her mother also told them to the people around him, and soon became an active member in the community.

Xiao Pinghai believes that these methods can greatly delay the occurrence and development of Alzheimer's disease. The process of making calls has changed from the previous Xiao Pinghai saying, mother listening to her mother listening, Xiao Pinghai listening, and what she said is becoming more and more energetic, which seems to have a certain effect. However, the most obvious effect is that Xiao Pinghai's phone bill has increased by more than 100 yuan per month.

My girlfriend said to him: "In order not to let your mother officially join the Alzheimer's team, she can save nothing to call bills!"

Xiao Pinghai was very moved, although his free pocket money was less than 100 yuan a month...

What Xiao Pinghai couldn't understand was that my mother often said to look at the moon on the windowsill. One of them was Xiao Pinghai who deliberately made a phone call at noon, but it was when the sun was burning all over the country that made people dare not look up.

Xiao Pinghai couldn't imagine what it would mean when his mother treated the sun as the moon. He quickly took another two days off and ran to his mother's house.

He noticed that something was wrong with my mother cooking, almost exactly the same as when she came last time.

Xiao Pinghai felt that the effect of psychotherapy was not as good as expected, and even dragged his mother to the hospital. His mother could not withstand Xiao Pinghai's soft and hard blisters, so she went to the hospital with Xiao Pinghai.
