TOKYO: Japanese Empress Emerita marked her 91st birthday on Monday (Oct 20).
The Empress Emerita broke her right thigh bone in October last year, but has recovered to almost the same condition as before the fracture. She carefully supports the daily life of the Emperor Emeritus, 91, who continues to receive cardiac treatment. She spends more days caring for her husband and her own health.
