45-year-old Image3. - Since April 1978,

Again, my story shall go back to 1978.

Because my sisters thought strange of my body devastating enough not to sit up even at a moment at April 1978, they brought me to the hospital that I had been in at fall 1977 again for the last time.

My weight was 40kg in my memory at the time.
My height is 178 or 180cm. (So far, I have thought I was 178cm. But on the checkup at winter 2003, it was 179cm. Compared with the young lads who claims themselves to be 178cm, I measures 2cm higher than them.)

On the day, the sisters had to hear from the doctor that "Now, there is no hope" already in 6 months after I took RH-787 poison.

Since April 1978, my body grew more and more bony and destroyed.

My body shape at summer 1978 was, my face got swollen more yellowishly than wax, because with my unmovable body I had to keep lying on the bed gasping for breath by hanging only onto the electric fan for 24 hours each day all that burning hot summer like a steam booth1978, with a skinny skeletal body like African people who had been dying of starvation.

It left me with a bone skinny body and a big swollen face settled down upon the bone.

It was not until then that I knew man has his body become like a ‘mantis’ in proportion as one gets skinnier and skinnier.

This image is ‘my self-portrait of summer 1978.’
