My mom grew up in poverty.When young,she worked hard 2 earn money so that her brothers and sisters can get proper education.When she married, it was not exactly a happy marriage but she held on for the sake of me & my brother. My father died 10 years back & she had to work again after a gap of 25 years.I became an engineer and my brother a doctor because of her hard work. i had a love marriage 3 years ago,not exactly against her wishes but she was not exactly happy with it either.Now, after a big fight, my wife has walked out of my home.We r thinking of seperating. my mom, in her old age, has to witness all this. She is upset all day. I WANT 2 MAKE HER HAPPY, BRING SOME CHEER IN HER LIFE. HOW DO I DO THAT. PLEASE ADVICE, PLEASE HELP ME.

I may not give you the best advice you wanted, but I think all moms are happy when they see their sons are doing fine and happy. In this trying time, you must stay positive and look after yourself mentally and emotionally. When she sees you how well you are coping with this episode of life, she will be very glad that she has done a fine job being a mom. In addition, try to spend more time with her, not just buying her gifts, but truly show how much you care for her well being. Call her frequently to see how she's doing, chat with her and also have your brother to do the same. Hope this helps.

Don't put your focus on making your mother happy. If at her age she cannot find happiness on her own, you will not be able to help her find it yourself. Work on repairing your marriage--seek counseling for you and your wife. If your marital situation then begins to mend, perhaps your mother's state of mind will as well. But if you try to please your mother at the expense of your marriage and your own well-being, you will likely fail on all counts.
I'm not a certified counselor but I am studying to be a pastor. I hope this helps. Best wishes.

i seriously respect the struggle your mom underwent. u must be proud of her & now, all u owe to her in her old age is a happy life. DONT LET YOUR FAMILY BREAK DOWN LIKE THAT. try & rebond. try convincing your wife otherwise, spend tym with your mom, she wud love that. MARRIAGE CAN BE DONE LATER AS WELL BUT RYT NOW YOUR MOM NEEDS YOU A LOT MORE.
AND GOD BLESS U.

ur mother is great!
I think the biggest happiness for her is ur and ur brother's happiness.So it's very important of u to have a happy family.
And ur mother may feel lonely often.U should often stay with her,have dinner together,and do something with her which will make her happy(if she likes shopping,go with her)
there're a lot of things that u can do,just get to do it.
