Kobayashi’s bilingual blog entry
Kobayashi’s most recent blog entry has an announcement in two languages. The English version of this statement follows:
I would like to thank everyone who provided me with all kinds of useful information these past few days.
Thanks to everyone’s support, I am able to aggressively pursue treatment for my condition.
The Nathan’s International Hot Dog Eating Contest is a competition that I love.
And I intend to do everything I can to treat this condition in what little time I have and to focus on the tournament.
I look forward to facing my fellow competitors on July 4th!
There is also information about his medical treatment in Japanese only
