My father may break down again anytime, if his blood sugar level goes down too much. He now wishes to do whatever he wants to do so that he wouldn't have any regret. And that's why we decided to go to Tsukudajima together. The whole family had a really good time, sitting around in Sumiyoshi Shrine. We had the area's speciality called Monja (pan-fried batter) and a dessert with an unbelievable name that I cannot mention in public (as it almost sounds like an indecent word). The dessert was something like crepes, only that the sweet red beans were mixed already in the batter. My father told me that this thing had already existed in his childhood. He was so happy and ate it a lot until his blood sugar level went up as high as 360. During the last week his blood sugar level moved from almost 10 to almost 400. What an amazing life he has been living! I know that I shouldn't be saying such a thing right now, but I get desparate in this situation.
Even in this condition my father was so kind to my mother, doing many things for her. I was seriously moved. Both of my parents were struck with admiration to see how much my son can be frolicsome. "It's so amazing how energetic a boy can be!", they said. Yes, he is truly lively. He is excited and frolicsome constantly from the moment he woke up in the morning until the moment he falls asleep. If an adult is in the same state of mind as he is, he must have got high from either coke or speed. Or you could imagine a drunk person, happily frenzied.
