I’m 38-years-old and I’ve moved into a NURSING HOME for the elderly – I love the slow pace life & the quiet

A 38-YEAR-old woman has been living in a nursing home for the elderly after extreme exhaustion caused her to become ill.

Ms. Yang had been working as a screenwriter for 11 years when the brutal schedule started taking a serious toll on her health.

Earlier this year, the Chinese resident became sick and needed to be hospitalised.

Doctors told her that she needed to lessen her workload or she would experience even more serious health problems, so the woman decided to find a way to take it easy.

Both her parents had passed away and she had no other close family, so she started looking for a place where she could kick back and relax.

While scouring the web for answers the woman stumbled upon a retirement home which advertised how calm and slow life was there, so she decided to give it a go.

“There are two reasons why I chose a nursing home instead of a hotel,” Ms. Yang told 6Park News.

“First, I was very curious about the nursing home and wanted to see what it was like and whether it was as boring as everyone said; second, because I was sick, I hoped to have a place to rest, access basic medical care, and eat healthily.”

She added that she often stayed up late at work in her previous job, and often missed out on sleep.

But the woman explained how she wanted to “live a good life, slow down, and find a place to recuperate.”

And the bold choice seems to have done the trick as the screenwriter said her work and rest are very regular now.

She said she will go to bed at 9pm but rises very early in the morning.

Ms Yang also enjoys reading and writes novels and memoirs for the elderly every day.

“I don’t feel lonely or bored in the nursing home,” she said.

After spending the last three months in a retirement home surrounded by people as old as 102 the woman says that she has gained a new perspective on life.

She has taken well to the slow pace of her temporary home and is trying to not think about the future and take one thing at a time.

Despite enjoying her time there Ms Yangdpes plan to leave the retirement home at some poit.

For now, she is still enjoying the peace and quiet of the Yisenlin retirement Home in Jilin City.

Ms. Yang has gone viral online as she posts video clips documenting her experience.

It comes as care home residents were overjoyed at being sent Valentine’s Day cards — only to discover they were from a chain of undertakers.

The elderly recipients eagerly opened the cards, decorated with a red heart and a pink bow.

But many were baffled to read the message inside, which said: “Sent with love from T.H. Sanders & Sons.”

Angry relatives say the stunt was an insensitive attempt to woo new customers — and accused staff at the home of helping to bring it about because the cards were unstamped.

One outraged son is now planning to move his mum, who is in her 80s.

He said: “Luckily, we managed to hide it away before Mum could see it as it would have been devastating.
