The conditions in Sendai are just slightly improved. The children went to school on Thursday and Friday. They had their graduation on Friday. Sakari said it was a ‘good graduation.’ The children have about three weeks off until the start of the new school year.
I asked Sakari if he is able to get food now. He said that more food is available, but no milk. He said that he waited in line for 3 hours for gasoline. There is not enough heating oil. He is concerned about the nuclear reactors and the radiation. There are many difficulties. I look at the images online and think of my friend and his family and students. It makes me sad to know of all of these difficulties and I try to think of what I can do to help.
