Sasaki-san

I miss you so much.
I remember I was crying hard staying at your place when I was little. I didn't know who you were and why I was there with you. I can't forget that for the first time I was smiling while I was blushing my teeth with you after you taught me how.
I wasn't exactly allowed to see you until a few months ago. I couldn't even greet you on New Year's day, but You've always given us brothers some money every year. My mother hesitated to tell me who you were, but whatever you are...sincerely I regard you as my Aunt.

Sasaki-san, you have to fight for yourself. We all back up for you. I can't do much, but I think of you.

Today, I received email from my mother telling me the alopecia(fall of hair) and jaundice(partially yellow skin) started. Never give up.
I'm afraid. I know you're afraid. Everybody's afraid. I can't say it aloud what we're afraid of... because it's hard to accept what we're all facing and we all have to face it without any choice.
I'm crying right now as I was crying at your house back about 16 years ago. Your ring on my hand, your red ruby necklace on my neck. You're with me. I'm so sorry that I can't be with you right at this moment. But please remember that you're not alone. We're all with you.

Never give up. Fight for youself.Give her strength, and courage.
Love and warm regards,
hope and peace.
I am with you.
