Man brings his mother to work for over three years

"I will worry a lot about her if she stays home alone and has no one to look after her. It is reassuring for me to take her to work and keep an eye on her, Wu said.

Wu's mother walks around the yard and enjoys the sun at the worksite. Though she does not recognize Wu any more, she still often tries to find him. Workers at the site have become used to seeing Wu's mother and praise him for taking good care of her.

Wu's worksite in Xiangshui town, Dafang county, is over 30 kilometers from his home in Bijie city, Guizhou province.

"For these three years, he has looked after her at the site. It's very hard for him," Long Heyun, a workmate of Wu, said.

Once he started taking care of her, he was unable to spend time with his friends. After some time, his friends stopped inviting him to parties, etc.
