On December 21, 2023, my time in the hospital began.
Although it’s not completely over yet,
today, on June 13, 2025, I was told to finish my final study session.
There’s still more I need to learn,
but now I’m told to study while working.
There are many things I still need to study on my own,
but people tell me I’ve already done a lot.
Most of all, I’m truly grateful to my family,
and especially to my wife who stood by me and helped me throughout.
And my children.
They were the reason I had to live.
Just having them grow up beside me
gave me the strength to keep getting back up.
I want to be a better father to them,
and someday, I hope to spend more joyful time together.
There is still much to prepare,
but I have a strong desire to do well.
I want to keep learning,
and I also want to work again.
The treatment and everyday living have cost a lot.
But thanks to the many people who helped me,
I’ve made it this far.
I remember and have written down all of that gratitude.
Now, I want to return the favor.
To everyone who helped me—
and especially to my wife and children—I want to do better.
To my mom and dad,
and to my mother- and father-in-law…
thank you, truly.
There’s still a lot I need to do, and I do worry.
But I’ll keep studying, keep working,
and I believe I’ll somehow find a way through.
I’m not perfect yet,
but I am alive, and I am living again—step by step.
