Kanashiro cat designed and supervised by Hiyori Makino. ``Oishime: For those who cannot eat orally - Each choice as seen by a speech therapist'' was released by Takeshobo today, February 26th.
"Eat Clothes: For those who cannot eat by mouth - Each choice seen by a speech therapist" is an essay written by Makino, a speech therapist, who cares for patients who are unable to eat by mouth. In the first episode, ``A Husband and Wife's Last Wish,'' a patient whose esophagus is extremely narrow and can only pass mixed food through his throat says, ``I don't care if I die right now, I just want to eat my fill of yakiniku.'' Makino, who sympathizes with this feeling, suggests that they have a ``meal meal.'' It was not only a final meal for the patient, but also a ritual for the family to give shape to their loved one's final meal. The meal that concludes life and the life pattern of each person are depicted.
