N. Stuart Harris, a doctor at Boston's Massachusetts General Hospital and former English teacher, rushed to Kesennuma for a five-day volunteer relief trip.
The wilderness medicine specialist first went to Japan in 1989 to teach English on the Japan Exchange and Teaching Program in Iwaizumi, a small fishing town on the Pacific coast of Iwate Prefecture, north of Kesennuma.
Reaching Kesennuma by the next morning, he began assisting those who sustained injuries in the earthquake and tsunami.
The Medical College of Virginia graduate worked with local nurses at community centers, a junior high school gymnasium, a Buddhist temple and at any place people gathered in temporary shelters, waiting for aid. His team members treated a total of more than 1,000 people during their stay.

The value of life
There are hundreds of thousands those who are evacuated from the disaster, shivering with cold, staying days and nights on the floor with blanket. The other old people are suffering from sickness without medicine nor any care support.
While the president of the electric company is said to be in hospital for over stressful reactor of the company. But he can stay in warm bed, have a good treatment and enough support.
I know life is different on each person but I believe in every life should share peace as equal as possible.
Though the position of the social status is different, our life would be no difference by nature.
So let our life prove it and share the grief and pain so that the survival life could make the better life in the future.

Operation Tomodachi
It is named "Operation Tomodachi" of the American Navy,Air force and the army troops to help Japan act.
Not only America but also the other countries are coming to help Japan. Thanks to the great support from domestic and overseas it is getting recovered step by step. But the way to the perfect recovery will take more years.
Most of all, shortage of electricity is very serious problem especially in Tokyo. So the electronic company has to give regular regional blackout to make balance of 'the supply and demand of electricity' to cover Tokyo.
It is said that it will be also taken for years.
There is a topic about helping the shortage of electricity.
Thailand government tells that they will lend two of their power generator by shipping. They really comfort for suffering of Japanese and want Japanese people fight against difficulties. Thanks for all the support!
