My name is Reginald I do not chat online anymore, not looking for a relationship...Not into one ... I enjoy reading a few profiles off/on.. I leave this page up for the members... Within my heart I lea.ve you an example of unconditional love and I don`t mean the spiritual end, but when things are rough on the this nitty-gritty level? A long time ago... I worked as a psychiatric technician in a hospital. There was a patient who was about 90... He was all skin and bones, with large sores on his backside, his eyes were almost closed because of an infection, and there was an unpleasant odor in his room... Most of the nurses and orderies didn`t want anything to do with this man because he was expected to die soon... So I asked the doctor and the nurse if it would be all right for me to take care of him, and they gave me permission... I rolled him over and than cleaned his sores with hydrogen peroxide and held warming lights near him for lengthy periods. within three weeks , the bedsores were gone... I powdered him, diapered him , and cleaned out his eyes. At one point, he started talking to me. I was surprised because this old man hadn`t talked all the time I been working in the hospital, and I had assumed he had lost the power of speech... He explained that he didn`t want to talk because the rest of the staff treated him as if he were already dead. We had a beauiful conversation that went like this... He said, you were a little rough a few times when you rolled me over. I replied, be thankful that I rolled you over. He laughed and said, I am, and you still rolled me over a little hard... I smiled and asked, why didn`t you speak to me sooner? Because I thought if I said something, you`d stop. That`s because you didn`t know me, I said... I do now he said, and that`s why I am telling you to take it easier... We both laughed... I made sure his room was one of the best smelling ones in the hospital... I made sure his bed was fresh. I knew he wasn`t going to live much longer, but while he was living, I made sure he had theattention he deservedas a human being... When he died, he was content that somebody had cared enough to take care of him. He died while I was in the room with him. He said, I would like to die now... I said, well, not until I give you a hug. He smiled, what do you think I am waiting for? I hugged him and he died, and I cried... Then I washed him because I cared enough... I share this story with everyone because unconditional loving doesn`t care about smells, looks, or any other condition... It`s just a matter of love them anyway... That man is dead, and he`s also alive in me and, perhaps, in you with whom I share the experience... No matter what you are seeking in life... Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they`ll love you back. Don`t expect love in return, just wait for it grew in their heart but if it doesn`t, be content it grew in yours... The beginning of true love is to let those we love be just themselves, and not twist them with our own image, otherwise, we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them. I truly hope that everyone find their blessings, I did two boys belowTake care...
