In the Philippines, relatives are expected to look after family until they pass away - making the idea of rest homes for the elderly a foreign concept.
But that is now changing and as Marga Ortigas reports, there's growing concern over how many of the country's 7 million elderly are being left to fend for themselves.

She could go to an aged care home but only if she is willing to do so - can't force someone to do something against their will especially at that age.
