"ALL CHILDREN HAS HOPE FOR THE FUTURE!" 

I learned this important thing from all deaf/hard of hearing children in Fukushima.

I'm glad to met these awesome children and deaf school teachers in Fukushima.

And, I'm glad to got this wonderful opportunities from my hard of hearing friends in TN. 

Guys, I really would like to see you again because I love Deaf schools in Fukushima! 

This is the reason why I did not say "Good bye" to the schoolmaster and vice principal before I left from deaf school. 

Everyone, please do not misunderstand about Fukushima.

Santa Claus from America

Hello Everyone. Do you Remember me?? :) 


Today, I would like to tell you about heartful stories. 


On June 19th, at the Hearing Loss Association of America's convention, I met two ladies who came from TN.


They asked me to help deaf/hard of hearing children in disaster areas. 


Soon after I got this wonderful question from them, I e-mailed to the Professor in the University of Tokyo. 


He agreed with their suggestions, and he tried to contact schoolmaster in deaf school in Fukushima.


"How many deaf children are there in Fukushima??"


The schoolmaster told us "There are 69 children around Fukushima." 


According to schoolmaster, there are 4 deaf schools in Fukushima.


I told these information to two ladies who I met at the HLAA convention. Then, they corrected staff animals, coloring books, crayon, tooth pastes, tooth brushes,  and 


And, they sent these donations to my house in Indiana.


On July 13th, I returned to Japan with a lot of donations. 


And, I went to Fukushima with my friend by his car. 


Today, I visited two deaf schools in Kōriyama City and Iwaki City. 


All Children were always smiling at me. 


They were very strong and pure persons. 


I'm glad to met these brave children. 


I attached two photos on this article.


I now can tell you the truth strongly, "JAPAN IS SAFE." 


Please do not misunderstand about people of Japan, especially Fukushima. 


Tomorrow, I will visit two more deaf schools in Fukushima.


I will upload more pictures on this blog. 


Anyway, thank you very much for your kindness, HLAA Nashville Chapter!!
