To reader who left a comment --

Life Extender for Kenji -- art work and photo -- copyright Kyi May Kaung

I am planning what you call a "post-hum" -- an obituary, on Kenji Nagaii, though there were many around the time he died.

I made a nyaung htauk or branched limb (tree branch) (to prop up a banyan tree) that people make in Burma and Thailand -- when they are sick,

as a "life extender" for Kenji --

Sadly, so many people have died, that I am unable to keep up with the Obits -- but I will try.
