The news spread, causing the reaction of the surrounding areas, Nanjing, Yangzhou, Changzhou, Wuxi, Shanghai and other places of a number of elderly lay some empty-nesters, have asked to live to the temple.

This is the interesting thing: Under normal circumstances, the old folks’ homes for the elderly must be signed by their children, such as children, need unit guarantees. In real life, many elderly people want to live do not live inside.

the ancient Daishoji nursing homes “care codes of practice in family dependents consent” provisions, but if it is a loss of independence or widowed, do not be shut out .

The

this money to eat, certainly not enough water, electricity, and the drugs, Chang France admitted that “the temple a year ‘subsidizing ’20 ten thousand yuan. This money depends entirely on alms.
