Ms Kono gave us an unique opportunity to have a Q and A session, 

These are the questions and answers, 

SM: It was so scary to hear your story,  

KK: Yes, it was very scary.  

FR How long was it until Hiroshima recovered?

KK:It took years, over 20 years and it was with the help of the USA. 

NG: What do you enjoy in your life today?

KK: I like teaching you, the young of Nihon about peace.  

MM: What did you think when the war ended? 

I was so sad - we all believed that Nippon would win.  

KL: How much did it cost for Hiroshima to recover? 

I do not know, but it took a lot from many places.
