Thank you

Hello, it’s Piko.

As I announced on Twitter, with the kidney donated by my mother, I safely completed the kidney transplant surgery,
And was discharged from hospital the other day!

To those who supported me,
And to the hospital staff, thank you very much!

While waiting for the wound to heal, I’m spending time at home and going to the hospital.

Last June I was admitted to emergency and started dialysis,
In August I announced it to everyone…

In terms of time, it’s half a year, which is probably short,
But to me, it was such a long time.

My mind was blank,
My heart and body were both at zero,
And it really felt like it was a turning point for me.

I thought about work and my personal future, of course,
But more than that I thought even more about life.

The things I have left to do,
The things I can no longer do,
The things I can realistically do,

How long I have left to do them; when I can start to do them.

In the time leading up to the decision of my transplant, I kept thinking about these things.

After the transplant was decided, the goal of recovery was established,
And I could start thinking about work again.

I, who have become a freelancer, have had everything reset. What do I want to do from here,
What kind of life can I lead?

While considering my own body, I’m thinking about many possibilities.


But first of all, the thing I want to do more than anything.

To my mum, who gave me her kidney,
To my family, who were my pillars of support,
To everyone, who worried for me, who cheered me on,
And to my friends and those I met through work, who helped me, who gave me advice, who encouraged me,

I want to properly say, “I’m back.”

I want to tell you all, “Thank you.”

That’s my core motivation right now.

I’m not good at delivering my emotions through text,
So I’ll do my utmost best, to convey them to you through music and words.

I hope they’ll be conveyed to you.

As for things that come after this,
I’ll talk more about my course to recovery at a later date.

I’ll focus my energy on rehabilitation and recovering my physical strength!

I hope to start giving you happier news soon,
So it’ll take a little bit more time, but please look forward to it!!

When the pain of my wound has subsided, I have plans to do a stream too, so I’d be happy if you came to watch!

Please take care of me!

Everyone, really, thank you so much!!

See you at my next blog.

Bye-ni ☆
