"Your CD is going to encourage many of CFS patients," Seiji
Matsushima, the head of CFS Network Japan, told me. His words prompted me to
open this page.
This could happen to everyone. While I've been suffering severe systemic
inflammation for 28 years since I was 15 years old, the results of my blood
tests (anitbody, CRP, ESR) and any mechanical examinations have come out as
normal and doctors kept telling me that the problems I've been having are just
my fancy (all in your mind) -- This continues even now. Yet, battling against
the despair many times due to my worsening condition, I've been working daily
to my best as a pianist throughout my career. Although I cannot be useful to
other as much as I wish because of the disease. However, I hope I could be
useful at least through my music.
First of all, let me express, here, my heartfelt appreciation to Ray
Colliton, moderator at the Co-Cure, who helped with making this
page while severely ill during the 2007 U.S. Thanksgiving holiday
season. I also want to express special thanks to Chisa
Yuasa who helped some of the scanning work. And, I also appreciate Mr.
Jiro Hamada of the “Record-Geijutsu” and its publisher the Ongaku no tomo
sha corp, Mr. Koji Fukuda and the publisher “FM-CLUB” and the CD-Journal
and its publisher the Ongakushuppannsha Co.,Ltd which gave me the special
copyright permissions with deep understanding about the keystone of this page.
Finally, I thank to all members of the Co-Cure
(non-profit-organization) for giving me the full understanding and
generosity to offer this place to share the information on the
Internet.
I hope
and expect, from my heart, full life with the good health for the
patients and family who have been involved not only into the CFS and FM
but also the RP and other related diseases, and the brilliant triumph for
all of the doctors and researchers in our very near future.
It is my great pleasure to know that my life could be of some help to
you.
