Sadako Sasaki’s Diary
August 27, 1955
This morning I reached 800 cranes. Mama says that I will make 1000. The doctors say that my leukaemia is getting worse. I am getting weaker and skinnier every second. It hurts very much to write in this diary and I can no longer sit up to eat. My roommate says that he is healing well. Chizuko - my friend, is coming later today with some more paper for me. Mama visits me twice a day with books for me. I can’t hold them anymore so she reads them to me now.
Goodbye diary -
Sadako
