He has a first name, but everyone just calls him Ototake. <br /><br />Ototake was born without arms or legs. He gets around by power wheelchair, one made specially for him. Ototake taught elementary school before he became a full-time author. And as a man with no arms or legs, he wondered what he could do to help people in the disaster-striken Tohoku area. I'm pasting a news clip of what he did. It's long and it's in Japanese, but look what one man, Ototake, did. Can we not take a lesson from him?<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ybrFZdX0MQ&NR=1ChuckTyrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02609200010767178944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2421642745880281653.post-59700957527401028842011-09-05T17:55:47.804+00:002011-09-05T17:55:47.804+00:00Well done, Nik!Well done, Nik!Jeanne Bannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17094994150964402490noreply@blogger.com
