The wise answer to someone asking about the health of your mom would be an honest and respectful response. Here are a few possible ways to answer:

  1. Honest and Positive: If your mom is doing well, you can respond with something like, "Thank you for asking! My mom is doing great."

  2. Honest and Concerned: If your mom is facing health challenges, you can reply with, "She's going through some health issues right now, but we're hopeful and doing everything we can to support her."

  3. Privacy-Respecting: If you prefer not to share specific details, you can say, "I appreciate your concern, but I'd prefer to keep her health matters private for now. Thank you for understanding."

The key is to share information that you are comfortable disclosing and to be considerate of your mom's privacy and feelings. If you choose to share details about her health, be mindful of the context and the relationship with the person asking. Sometimes, sharing medical information with close friends or family can be comforting, but in more casual or professional settings, it's okay to keep the response more general. Ultimately, the wise response is one that balances honesty, respect, and the boundaries you set for sharing personal information.
