ALSとは
ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) is a disorder in which the muscles of the hands, feet, throat, tongue, and the muscles necessary for breathing are unable to transmit signals, making it impossible to move the body.
Because motor nerves are affected rather than muscles, vision and hearing are preserved. The number of patients in Japan is about 9200.
It is a designated intractable disease of unknown origin with no established treatment.

Kimiko and Kiyoharu
On July 7,2019, Kiyoharu visited the hand craft brand "SEVEN SENCE" by Kimiko Inoue, introduced by Mr. Momotani, a staff member of the apparel shop "The R" in Osaka.
Kimiko, who had already felt that something was wrong with her body, was scheduled to be hospitalized for an examination the next day.
