The records of the Detention House referred to by Dr. Nishiyama contained some obvious deceit. For example, the Detention House claims that our father eats meals without spilling a drop of soup. When We were caring for him, however, he would frequently spill because he was blind. When he ate meals at home, We would cover his clothes with bath towels on his chest and knees to avoid soiling them. It was also the role of his caregiver to hold his hands to show him the location of chopsticks, forks, and spoons.
A jail is a closed room that cannot be seen by the eyes of a third party. Records can be fabricated very easily.
The Detention House would lose face if our father lied neglected in serious illness. Moreover, our father was not seriously ill in the beginning, but deteriorated over time. If it is possible to conclude that our father was "malingering", they won't be blamed about not allowing medical care but helping the deterioration of his symptoms.
In other words, the Detention House cannot be a fair institution at least for our father. Dr. Nishiyama performed the evaluation on the premise that there is no doubt in the accuracy of the report by the Detention House.
Why did Dr. Nishiyama only refer to the record of the unfair Detention House to give a solid expert opinion? There must have been many opportunities to observe our father during mealtime with his own eyes.
