<div>My son Henry, known to most by his sumo name Sentoryu Henry, lives in Japan. He just celebrated his 56th birthday this month and is one of the kindest, most generous people you could ever know. He went to Japan in 1988 and became a professional sumo wrestler.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now Henry (Sentoryu) is facing the biggest fight of his life. He has a severe chronic lung disease called <strong>sarcoidosis</strong> which has left his lungs unable to function on their own. After trying every possible treatment, his doctors have said that <strong>a lung transplant is his only chance to survive and live a full life.</strong> Pursuing a lung transplant in the United States is not an option since traveling from Japan is impossible in his current condition.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>There are some health requirements that Henry (Sentoryu) must still meet before he can be added to the donor list, and once added, the waiting period for a lung transplant is very long, possibly up to 2 years.</strong> He was admitted on May 5 and was in the ICU until May 15. Until receiving a transplant, he must remain in the hospital connected to a specialized oxygen machine which allows him to breathe comfortably.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Unfortunately, Henry's (Sentoryu's) condition does not allow him to work any longer. This has caused hardship for him and his wife. Although they have insurance which covers some of the expenses, the cost of hospital care, including ongoing treatments, tests, medications, and travel expenses (gas, tolls, etc.) his wife spends to visit him (driving 1 hour 40 minutes each way), on top of living expenses that his wife is now having to take on alone, is much more than they can afford.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We humbly ask for your help. Any donation, no matter how small, is greatly appreciated. If you are unable to donate, we ask for your prayers and thank you for reading his story and hope you will share it with others.
</div>

<div><em>私の息子ヘンリーは、相撲名「戦闘竜・ヘンリー」として知られ、現在日本に住んでいます。彼は今月56歳の誕生日を祝ったばかりで、皆さんもご存知の通り1988年に日本へ渡り、アメリカ初の大相撲力士になりました。</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>﻿</em>
</div>
<div><em>今、ヘンリー（戦闘竜）は人生最大の戦いに直面しています。彼は「サルコイドーシス」と呼ばれる重度の肺疾患を患っており、この病気によって肺は自力で機能することができなくなりました。様々な治療法を試した結果、医師たちは彼が生き延び、これまで周りの人々と分かち合ってきたような豊かで充実した人生を送るには、肺移植しか方法がないと告げました。残念ながら、現在の彼の状態では日本からアメリカへ渡航することは不可能であり、米国での肺移植は選択できません。﻿</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>﻿</em>
</div>
<div><em>ヘンリー（戦闘竜）は、ドナーリスト登録の為に多くの健康上の要件を満たす必要があり検査をしてきました。また登録後も肺移植の待機期間は非常に長く、平均で2年かかる可能性があります。彼は今年5月5日に緊急入院し、5月15日まで集中治療室（ICU）にて治療を行いました。移植を受けるまで、快適な呼吸ができるよう、専用の酸素吸入器を装着した状態で入院する必要があります。﻿</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>﻿</em>
</div>
<div><em>残念ながら、ヘンリー（戦闘竜）は病状のため、もう働くことができません。これは彼と妻にとって大きな負担となっています。費用の一部は保険でカバーされていますが、継続的な治療、検査、薬、妻が見舞いに通う交通費（片道1時間40分の運転）（ガソリン代、高速道路料金など）を含む入院費用に加え、妻が仕事をしても、一人で負担しなければならない生活費は、到底賄える金額ではありません。﻿</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>﻿</em>
</div>
<div><em>皆様のご支援を心よりお願い申し上げます。少額でも構いませんので、ご寄付はヘンリーの医療費と回復に直接役立てられます。ご寄付ができない場合は、ヘンリーと家族のためにお祈りいただき、ヘンリーのことを1人でも多くの方々にお伝えください。﻿</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>﻿</em>
</div>
<div><em>﻿ヘンリーを支えてくださり、ありがとうございます。ヘンリーの経歴と功績について詳しくは、フェイスブック、インスタグラム、ユーチューブ、ウィキペディアなどをご覧ください。﻿</em>
