\uff0aFour years ago, I transferred from Tokyo to my hometown to take care of my parents with dementia.<\/p>\n

It is so hard to both work and care for my parents that I took unpaid leave twice. It adversely impacted on my household economy and my career. My parents refuse to live in elderly care facilities and I have been beset with problems from all sides. I am asking AAJ to make a proposal to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare to revise the law in order to be able to realize the simultaneous pursuit of both work and care. (55-year-old woman)<\/p>\n

*\uff29 have been taking care of my husband\u2019s father with dementia caused by cerebral infarction for<\/p>\n

12 years. He cannot speak and can only yell to express his feelings. It is painful for me to see<\/p>\n

him who looks like he is living with only his appetite. Every day I encourage myself to imagine that<\/p>\n

the former healthy and intellectual father is watching me to take care of the present father. (51-year-old woman) <\/strong><\/p>\n
