Last Sunday, i went to the national hansen disease facility with my friend.
do you know hansen disease??
the sick is the infectious disease by rai bacteria.
at the old time, no medician for treatment for the sick, so the sick was very heavy desease. and the heavy symptom is that the shap of hand or leg changes to the other shap.
in general, peaple were scared of them and hate them.
even though the family, they hided them and hate them.
but now there are good medician for the hansen disease.
so the sick man can get well by the medician.
if the sick is find out. there is no hangout.
but many peaple are suffering from the discrimination from the society.
some one want to go back to home, cant do that. it's real thing.
the news is one of the discrimination. click!!

from the incidence, i really felt that knowing is very very important.
the discrimination comes from the ignorance.
to everything, to try to know , learn reduce the discrimination.
