The purpose of this study is to clarify the role of fathers and relationships in families with sick children. A questionnaire survey was done with 46 families, consisting of 90 parents, whose children had received living related liver transplantation (LRLT) operation at a single center in 'Ibkyo. The result of this survey is as follows : 1. When children were hospitalized, mothers evaluated fathers' following behaviors; visiting their sick children in hospital, listening to mothers' anxiousness about their children and so on. 2. After families had experienced LRLT operation, fathers thought that they were more related with family members, but mothers were not. 3. After families had experienced LRLT operation, the average score of FES(Family Environment Score) of LRLT families were higher than the averaged families. In LRLT operation, the role of fathers was very important. Therefore, in order to overcome family crisis, more support to help fathers and to maintain a good relationships between spouses are needed.
