The Okinawa Times published an article on Ana and Isa’s speech at a symposium on organ transplant awareness in Urasoe, Okinawa on October 18th. Ana is quoted as saying, “We received life from our donors,” and Isa is quoted as saying, “We thankful for every breath.” One issue brought up during the symposium was the need for brain death to be recognized as death in Japan.
