About measures against childhood cancer

　Since childhood cancer has a small number of cases and a lack of social understanding compared to adult cancer, the purpose is to let you know a little about the current situation of children and families who are treating and experiencing childhood cancer. I created a video that did.
　A child and his parents living in Yokohama, who received treatment for childhood cancer at a hospital in Yokohama City, told Yuji Nakazawa, who played an active part in Yokohama F. Marinos, "I was struggling during the fight" and "I was encouraged by others. "
　The 15-second short version of this video will be available on municipal subways and municipal buses from February 1 to 28, 2015, and will be available from Friday, March 14 to Thursday, March 27. Will be broadcast on
