[South Florida DX Association] To Jim and the others being concerned about my family and the other sufferers

[Bill]

 From Bill NA2M:




I should have posted this news to the reflector before. Late at night 
yesterday, my sister in Tokyo has received an e mail from our brother, 
which told all of them were doing OK. Their location is high enough to 
spare any damage from the tsunami.

Despite of no power or no water supply, they could live on with some 
stock of foods. Since my mother is in a nursing facility there, she 
might be taken care by the personel as well. I hope her lack of recent 
memory helps her not to be aware of the difficult situation. I am really 
thankful to those who are caring for her. Because they, themselves, are 
suffering from the disaster as well.

I appreciate your concern for them as well as the other numerous 
sufferers. Your concern and prayer together with the donation must be of 
big support to them all. I say thanks a lot on behalf of them. There 
seem much needs for foods, blankets or medicine etc over there. It is 
getting even snowy, as the forecast says. Material as well as spiritual 
supports from overseas are highly appreciated.

My room at the office is messed with fallen bookshelves, papers or books 
etc. We are supposed to have another earthquake, less tha that big one 
but still pretty hazardous, in a few days. That's why I am reluctant to 
get things arranged as before. But I am pleased to start normal routine 
at the office.
No radio at home yet. I won't enjoy it even if I have the radio set up 
again. I am too much concerned about the suffering people and the 
consequence of the nuclear plants almost melting down.

I am proud that most people are behaving in very good manner. Without 
the traffic signals, the drivers are so courteous to give way to the 
others. Our patience and resilience may let us overcome this difficulty 
in the future.

Thanks again, Jim. Best regards to Nina.
