Dear Izumi,

It's been a relieved to hear that you made it out of the subway and are
fine, along with your family. As we've been watching the unprecedented
earthquake, followed by the tsunami and now explosions at nuclear reactors
in your country, I as many others am praying and hoping that the worse of
the catastrophe is behind us (although, in effect, we fear to hear of a
devastating final dead toll.) My heart goes out to you and your country
fellow people as well as all people living in Japan.

Mawaki
