Chapter 1: Me as a Person

　Is 27 years really long or short?

My body is always been weak since childhood, and today the curtain has closed on 27 years of my life.

I did not make any close friends,

I never made a lover,

I never married,

I just lived slowly towards death.

I was not blessed in many ways, but I was blessed with my family.

My parents were doctors, and they owned a very famous hospital.

If I had been healthy, I would have wanted to be a doctor too.

My room for the past 27 years was a room in the hospital room of the hospital run by my parents.

It was made just for me,

The wallpaper was white because it was a hospital,

The interior of the room changed as I got older.

I am sure it is not so different from ordinary rooms.

The only difference was that I could not leave the room.

I wondered what I was born for,

Why did I have to go through this?

There were times when I wondered why I was born and why I had to go through all this,

But when I realized that my parents, who were doctors, were more deeply hurt by the fact that they could not cure me, I decided to accept my illness.

There were many places I wanted to go, many things I wanted to see, and things to do.

I read a lot of books and studied a lot.

My parents had not given up on curing me,

I didn't give up on trying to get better.

All I could do was to make an effort.

I lived my life to the fullest for 27 years in my own way.

That's why I was so happy, father, mother, and Kyoko.

Please don't cry.......

I've always been happy.
