Description | Suffering with full-body burns Drawing / Ayako Uesugi Around 11:00 a.m., August 6, 1945 Approx. 2,000m from the hypocenter Funairi-kawaguchi-cho This drawing depicts the scene Ayako saw as she fled from her home with Kazuji. By this time, Kazuji was too weak to stand unassisted, and Ayako actually saw his burns swelling. He kept saying, "I can't take it. I can't take it. Give me some water. Give me water." |
