"My natural mother died one month after I was born, apparently due to giving birth at an advanced age"
- Koichi Tanaka
About this Quote
This quote by Koichi Tanaka talks to the catastrophe of his mother's death. It is a suggestion of the fragility of life and the dangers related to childbirth. It is also a suggestion of the importance of taking care of one's health and seeking medical suggestions when necessary. The reality that his mother passed away one month after he was born suggests that she might have remained in bad health prior to giving birth, or that the pressure of giving birth was too much for her. It is likewise possible that she was of an advanced age, which can increase the dangers associated with giving birth. Whatever the cause, it is clear that Koichi Tanaka's mother's death was a tragedy, and her memory will remain with him forever.
