妈妈退休前是教工科的大学老师,和学生的关系比较好,有些学生过了十几、二十年还能保持联系。妈妈思维敏捷、学习能力和动手能力都强。记得她以前给我辅导中学物理,经常不能理解为什么讲几遍我还是不太懂,时不时要拍着桌子,恨铁不成钢
可惜妈妈前些年慢慢记忆越来越差,按她的年龄是不应该的。她自己也着急,到处看医生。我也曾带她到北京几个三甲医院去找过中医和西医的专家,中药、西药都吃过不短的时间,但是没有什么好转,反而随着时间越来越严重。
现在给家里打电话时,能感觉到妈妈记忆混乱,有时可能都不明白我们在说什么,我时常没法和她直接说话。我多么地希望能昔日重来,妈妈的身体可以恢复,回到从前!
Yesterday Once More
When I was youngI'd listen to the radio
Waitin' for my favorite songs
When they played I'd sing along
It made me smile. Those were such happy times
And not so long ago
How I wondered where they'd gone
But they're back again
Just like a long lost friend
All the songs I loved so well. Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-o-wo-o
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're startin' to sing's
So fine. When they get to the part
Where he's breakin' her heart
It can really make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more. Lookin' back on how it was
In years gone by
And the good times that I had
Makes today seem rather sad
So much has changed. It was songs of love that
I would sing to then
And I'd memorize each word
Those old melodies
Still sound so good to me
As they melt the years away. Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-o-wo-o
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're startin' to sing's
So fine. All my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry.
Just like before
It's yesterday once more.
