~Living condition of FUJIMOTO family,1988~
In 1988, Fujimoto family lived in Ohzu. They are parents, grandparents and my elder sister, 5 years old. Mother was in the eight month of pregnancy. While, father was away from Japan on business. He was in the Philippines. All they lived together in a house.

You know my mother is a Filipina, so she was still to be new in Japan, too live well without her husband. So, father could speak Japanese and Tagalog well. Besides, among the family, only he could drive a car. Therefore, all they believed that he come back to all take care of her, less than one month before it has come the baby's due on July.

~Unexpected sudden birthday~
Buuuuttttt!!! Unfortunately, she has gone into labour in May 18!! It was two month faster to birth!! Grandparents and mother were so confused, "I don't know what we should do first!! Oh God! Oh God!"
Anyway, they had to carry her to the nearest obstetrics department. Then, I still wonder today what my late grandfather gave her a lift on his small motorcycle!! And he made her take hold of his back, went to there by one; I still shudder today at "If her labour felt so heavy, that she let go of his body...

He managed to arrive. Mother was writhing in pain while the labour, though the smaller baby was easily born in short time. She told "It was so easier than your sister, just like...soft st**l!! And you really looks like a monkey baby! Ha-ha-ha!" So, the baby is me. However I didn't first crying, so I was a very premature baby. My weight was only 1500 gram. Mother was safety.

Immediately an obstetrician took me to a bigger hospital in an ambulance. I had a narrow escape from death, and I had to stay in an incubator for fur month. After a few days later, father came back. Mother and grandfather already named me "Emiri(=恵美里)", then father was shocked a little. Because he had planned to name me "Hiromi(=弘美）" using a part of his name "Masahiro(=政弘)". But it was already late.
Mother loved a popular Japanese song "愛しのエリー" by Southern All Stars, at the time. You know, my name came from this song!
