Thank you! We are an American family who visited Japan in June 2018. Our twelve year-old uses a Convaid “buggy type” wheelchair. Because of your organization, I believe, we never had a problem getting a ramp when using the JR trains throughout Japan. (We did have a problem getting kurumaisu seats for him because we were told a) child can’t be disabled, b) kurumaisu seats only for nihonjin.)
My child also has refractory seizure disorders (I read about the other mum in your Japan Times article), in addition to multiple other disabilities. I felt connected to that mother!
You are doing great things!
