About the Society to Save Kono

In February this year, I heard from Kono-chan’s mom that she needed a heart transplant, saying, “Actually, this is an extended cardiomyopathy.”
It’s been two years since I couldn’t see you in the dance… I never imagined it would have been like that.
She’s always bright and has a nice smile, and she’s like the sun who can talk to everyone kindly.
She can’t go home all the time, and She’s fighting illness every day.

“I don’t know how long I’ll be able to live like this.” “If there’s even a little hope for a travel transplant” – I was heartbroken as a parent with the same child. An 11-year-old girl faces her life and says, “Please help me.” Please,” the figure that complained to us is still burning in my eyes.

This girl is already on the domestic transplant waiting list, but there are very few donors for children’s heart transplants compared to the waiter. Transplantation in the United States requires high medical and travel expenses. That’s not the amount that ordinary households can pay at all.

In order to fulfill this girl’s wish, we set up a meeting to save this girl.
Kono’s future can be expanded together by everyone’s power.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
