Description | Shrieking at the pain of rehabilitation 3,700 m from the hypocenter, Koi-machi (now, Koi-ue) September-October 1945 Takashi Nagara (11 at the time of the bombing, 68 when he drew this picture) Artist's explanation In September, we got word that school was starting up. I had been bedridden, my legs immobilized. As I recovered, I found my legs had atrophied, so I could not walk. My parents' rehabilitation routine of stretching my legs was so painful I shrieked with the pain. |
