How do you do, L. K is really willing to meet you and asked me if I can talk to you. Instead of talking to K, would you talk to me?

He claimed onto my lap as I was sitting and he nodded to me.

Will you talk with me for K?

肉体を離れていくとき、どんな感じがしたか教えてくれますか？

ベランダの窓が見えました。外は明るいけれど家の中に日差しが入ってくるほどではない。居間の様な所にいて、５時ごろ早朝少し明るい感じ。階段の踊り場に小さな窓がある。家族がいらっしゃった。周りに人の気配はしない感じ。窓の光に吸い寄せられるように、Lが身体からすぅっと抜けていき、まばゆい光とともになる映像と感覚を受け取りました。痛みがあったようには感じませんでした。

Translation / English

Would you tall me what did you feel when you are going away from your body?

I saw the window of veranda. Although outside was bright, it was not strong enough to make inside of the house bright. I was in somewhere like a living room. I felt like it was around 5'o clock in the morning and it was slightly bright outside. There was a window in the hallway of staircase. The family came. I felt there was nobody around. I felt the sense and the image of L coming out from his body and his spirit melting into the bright light as if the light from the window was drawn to him.

Translation / English

Will you tell me how did you feel when you leave the body?

I saw the window of the porch. Though it is bright in the outside, sunlight does not enter the house. I am in the place such as the living room and, I feel slightly bright early in the morning at about 5:00. There is a small window in the staircase landing.
There was a family. I do not feel a signs of life around. Be attracted by the light of the window, L came gliding out of the body and I received a picture and a sense to become with dazzling light. I did not feel a pain.

今、どんな所にいますか？

最初に受け取ったのは、Kご一家を上から眺めている映像でした。Lのいる場所は、ワンちゃんが多くいるようで、そこからKご一家にいつ戻るか、様子を伺っているような感覚を受け取りました。

そこでは、どんな感じがしますか？

周りに多くのワンちゃん仲間がいる感覚。休んでいるというよりは、その仲間たちと一緒に楽しく仕事をしている感覚を受け取りました。

Translation / English

Can you describe the place you are at now?

The image I received first was K looking down the family from above. I felt that L might be in the place with many doggies. And I felt that he is waiting for the moment to come back to K's family in there.

How are you feeling there?

I had a feeling he is surrounded with many other doggies. I felt that he is working with fun with those fellows rather than having a rest.

Translation / English

What kind of place are you in now?

At first I received the picture which looked at K family from the top. The place where L is seems to have a lot of dogs, I received the sense that they wait and see when they came back to the K family from there.

How do you feel there?

I feel that there are pals of many dogs around. They do not take a rest and work with the pals happily, I felt like that.

Original Text / Japanese

Lはどんなお仕事をしているのか、教えてくれますか？

Ｋご一家をサポートする仕事。「他にも誰かをサポートしていますか？」と尋ねると、していないようで、今はＫご一家をずっと見守っているようです。

特によく一緒に過ごすワンちゃんや人間、他の動物さんはいますか？

Translation / English

Will you teach what kind of work L does?

Work to support K family. "Does he support somebody else?" When I ask that, he does not seem to do it and seems to watch K family all the time now.

Are there dogs and human beings, other animals whom he spends particularly well together?

L, can you tell me what's kind of job you are working on?

I am working as a support to K's family. When I asked him the question, "are you supporting someone else?". He looks like he is not supporting anyone part from K's family.It seems he is watching K at all time.

Do you have any particular dog or person or the other animals who you often spend time together?

Can you let us know what kind of job is L doing?

The job of supporting K's home. When I asked "Are you being someone else's support too?", the reply was no, now she's always supporting K's home.

Original Text / Japanese

大きくて厚めの男性の手が見え、Lの頭をとても愛おしそうに優しく撫でる映像・感覚を受け取りました。男性は私には50代前後に見え、大柄でふっくらとしていて白髪混じりでした。優しそうに微笑んでおり、メガネはかけていませんでした。その方の映像とともに、左下腹部の不調と吐き気を受け取ったので、もしかするとその方は身体のその近辺の関係でお亡くなりになったのかもしれないと思いました。（Ｋいわく、男性はＫの父親の風貌によく似ている。）

Translation / English

I received the image/sense of a big and thick man's hand stroking L's head gently. The man looks like in his 50s to me. He is big and huge, with gray hair. He was smiling softly and he does not wear glasses. I also received strange feeling on left down side of stomach and sickness at the same time as I received the image of him. So I thought he might passed away due to illness of this area. (According to K, the description of the man sounds quite familiar to K's father)

Translation / English

I saw the big, thick hand of the man. I received an image and a sense to brush a head of L kindly in the way that he loves it very much. I assumed the man around 50s, and he was husky, fluffy and gray-haired. He smiled tenderly, and did not wear the glasses. I took nausea as the disorder of the lower left abdomen with his image, so possibly I thought whether he died of an abdominal disease. (K says, the man resembles K's father.)

Original Text / Japanese

この方は、Kさんのお父様ですか？

そう、と受け取りました。「いつだってふたりでKたちを守っているよ。」と、聞こえました。（これは、受け取った感覚を私なりに言葉にしたものです。）

他に、特によく一緒に過ごす人か動物はいますか？

コーギーかシェルティのような犬の映像を受け取りました。特に仲良くしている犬が１匹いるようです。（犬の友だちはいないが、おじいちゃんのうちに柴がいた。そんなに仲良くはなかった。）

Translation / English

Is he K's father?

I think so. "Two of us always K anytime," I heard so. (Expressed by my words the sense that I received .)

Are there people or animals to spend together particularly well elsewhere?

I received the image of the dog such as corgi or shelty. There seems to be in particular one dog getting along well. (There was not the friend of the dog, but there was a Japanese midget Shiba in the house of grandfather. They were not so harmoniously).
