While the Yamaoka estate displayed a glorious past, but the family residence was falling apart. The house needed numerous renovations to remain habitable.
The last generation of the Yamaoka family were facing troubled times. Their finances were dire and the situation worsened when the daughter started university, just a few months before the mother became ill. Shouldering both university fees and hospital bills, the father worked past exhaustion.
