This month, an article about Mr. Sakamoto was published on the weekly magazine. It was a good and sincere article as there are also many photos of animals along with the history of the earthquake and the nuclear accident aftermath.
Unfortunately, just after the interview, Mr. Sakamoto was hospitalized urgently. To our relief, he was able to come back home after a few days, but it worries us as well as his injury last month.
Let us tell you that there was a good news. The Propan gas supply has been reinstalled at Mr. Sakamoto's home. It seems this installation was exceptional as it is originally limited to commercial or municipal use only in the area, but it means one lifeline came back. After we asked for a donation of a gas stove on Twitter as he hasn't got one, we thankfully had a couple of offers. Hopefully, it will be installed soon.
We would like to thank all of you who sent the gas ovens, who spread our tweets, and who gave a warm thought about Mr.Sakamoto and his animals.
