Dear Mr.Walt
How have you been? I hope you have been keeping your health since
I saw you last.
I visited Youichi at his nursing home last week. He is spending very
comfortable and healthy life with his parents.
He can’t move so freely as befor, but he can operate a PC and walk freely
with the help of walker. He is continueing rehabilitation three times a week.
I was very delighted that he looked very healthy and cheerful.
He was warried about your recent health. So, I reported him about your
participation in the grand meeting in USA and recent your activities of
Hibikinokai. He admired your indomitable spirit. So do I.
He asked me to tell to Mr.Walt and Hibikinokai members his best regards.
Heavy rain, gust wind, typhoon, change in temperature,,,. Please take good
care of yourself and accident.
Sincerely yours.
(From Hide,   old member of hibikinokai.)

ニュースレターいつも楽しくそして懐かしく、拝見しています。
オールドメンバーで見慣れた顔を発見して返信しました。御無沙汰失礼の段は平に御容赦を。
Ⅰam fineです。現在 have a workで日曜も jobで、これを端的に言うと貧乏暇なし、です。
去年の10月はレッドソックスのワールドシリーズ、リリーフでマウンドに立った上原投手が最後の打者をホー
クで仕留め、人差し指を高々と掲げ、キツチャーと抱き合いチャンピオンになったゲームをボストンのホテルで
ツアー旅行で疲れきった目をこすりながら見ていました。その数日後、ボストン美術館へ向かうバスの運転手
がshut down・・・difficultと携帯に叫んでました。優勝パレードで行く先々の道路が封鎖されてバス会社に
困窮を訴えてました。中学の英語授業でdifficultを習ったときは、こんな単語わが人生で使うことはないだろう
と思ってましたが、こんな形で生々しい英会話を聞くことができました。
敬愛してやまないwaltの病との闘いもdifficultを極めたことでしょう。このニュースレターで経過を祈る気持ち
で見てました。
見事克服し、復帰されたときは、胸が熱くなりました。やはり、waltは英語だけでなく、私にとって人生の師でも
あるのです。
また、逢える日を楽しみにしています。
