Hi! I got the results… and yep, Achilles tendon’s torn🫢!!!

This year’s been soooo wild—started with mystery illness, collapsed lung, and now this!!haha

I’m litelally crawling through life these days… 😂 Not exactly going the way I planned...(^◇^;)


But don’t worry—honestly, I’m finding ways to enjoy myself this situation:)

Hey everyone! How’s it going?
Well… I did it again 🤣

Just when I thought my breathing was finally getting better and I could get back to normal life, I’m back in the hospital🚑

I haven’t had the MRI yet, but it looks like either a tendon or muscle tear. Yeah… I went a little too hard at the local sports day 🥲

Collapsed lung, torn muscle… most people would call that super unlucky, right? But you know, everything happens for a reason. I’m actually learning so much from this experience—so yeah, I’d say I’m lucky!

I’ve got this feeling that once I get through this, something amazing is waiting on the other side 🌸

So let’s stay positive!

It’s been a while—yes, I’m alive😁haha

Since my surgery, I’ve been slowly getting better.
But because the nerves connected to my lungs are still paralyzed, breathing feels heavy and I can’t sleep well at night.

The good news is I can walk again, and even talk a little more now.
But still, I can only work on videos little by little✨

Being able to breathe, being able to sleep at night—
I’m realizing those simple things are already such a blessing☀️

I should be able to upload my new video about breathing soon. Stay tuned!

Finally got to go outside after a long time—and wow, this matcha hits the spot🥹

Breathing still feels hard… so I’m learning how to breathe from this book📕

Don’t push ourselves:)
Go little by little💓

Good news🤗🎐

Hi, everyone! I’m slowly getting better:)

I can finally sit and walk a bit after being stuck in bed.

Breathing is still tough — yeah, it’s not easy.—
but it also makes me appreciate every single breath.

Honestly, it feels like I’ve been given a beautiful gift 💕

Just taking a moment today to be grateful for this one breath.

Have a happy day😁

Quick update🥲🙌

After I left the hospital, I was slowly getting better…
But few days ago, I suddenly couldn’t breathe well and couldn’t even walk.

I got really scared and thought, “Oh no… is there a hole in my lung again?”

I rushed into the hospital and got a CT scan—
Good news, it wasn’t a collapsed 🫁.

But the doctor said the nerves that help my lungs move aren’t working well because of the surgery.

It’s still hard to breathe unless I’m lying down, so I’m mostly staying in bed now.

I think I have to be taking a little more break from YouTube…😂

Thanks for all your kind messages and support. It really means a lot 💚

I’ll definitely be back!🔥💪 I’ll be fine☺️

【Makenaide-Don’t Give Up-❤️‍🔥】

If your life feels tough right now,
there’s a song I really want you to hear!

This song always heals and energizes me when I feel like giving up, lost, or anxious...

I had been listening to it every day during my hospital stay and I cried a lot😂haha

負けないで – Makenaide – Don’t Give Up
A classic Japanese song from a little while back(1993).

→ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4DJk...

It’s in Japanese, but I’m sure it will soothe your heart too.
Just the sound of her voice can be so healing.

If you’re interested, give it a listen!
Let’s keep going together! Don’t give up❤️‍🔥

Here’s the English translation, done by ChatGPT.

ーーーーー

Don’t Give Up

In a fleeting moment, our eyes meet
Do you still remember that spark of happiness?
We fell in love in a pastel-colored season
Just like that day, keep shining bright as you are

Don’t give up, just a little more
Run all the way to the end
No matter how far apart we are
My heart is always right beside you
Keep chasing that distant dream

No matter what happens, you always smile like it’s nothing
Saying, “It’ll all work out,” as you playfully laugh
“Shall we dance together tonight?”
I still love that version of you—please don’t forget

Don’t give up, look—it’s right there
The goal is getting closer
Even if we’re far apart
My heart is always with you
Feel it—in the way my eyes look at you

Don’t give up, just a little more
Run all the way to the end
No matter how far apart we are
My heart is always right beside you
Keep chasing that distant dream

Don’t give up, look—it’s right there
The goal is getting closer
Even if we’re far apart
My eyes are telling you—I’m here with you

I’m finally out of the hospital🏥🕊️😍

Once again, thank you ×100 for all the kind comments and likes about my emergency lung surgery😊
I really really appreciate all your support🎉🙇🏻 I’m sooo happy now😍

Today, I want to share a story during this hospital stay😌

To be honest, my lungs have been weak since I was born.
So even after the surgery, they didn’t expand properly, and I had trouble breathing many times🥲

So, there were moments I thought,
“What if I can’t breathe in the next second?”

It was scary and tough… but in the middle of all that, I realized the simple, ultimate answer to the question:

“What does it mean to live?”

The moment it hit me, it felt like my brain sparked⚡️

OMG!!😳 Life is actually really simple!!

That realization made me feel so much lighter inside.

And I started to appreciate this very moment more than ever before🪽

Now I feel like this whole experience was a challenge sent by the universe to teach me this lesson.

I’ll share more about it in an upcoming video✨

Arigatou❣️hehe

The tube from the surgery was taken out!!! 🎉

Looks like I’m almost back to being a YouTuber from a “Tuber”! 😆

I didn’t expect it to come out this soon, so I’m honestly super happy.

Seriously, your prayers are working miracles 😍

I still have to stay in the hospital for a bit for observation, but this is a big step forward! 🚶‍♂️✨

When I looked outside, I saw a sideways heart-shaped cloud 💗☁️
