Letter to the Other Side of My Body

December 25, 2001

Dear Yoram,

You have been a really good fellow. I admired not only your excellent academic experience but also your great sense of humor, which always gave a perfect remedy for my mental and physical ills.

Yoram, my closest friend was also my dermatologist as well as the other side of my body. In 1999, you gave a live workshop of Exoderm to my wife, me being the patient. Thanks to your kind instruction, my wife had the honor to be the first Japanese Exoderm specialist. On the other hand, I became the first Japanese Exoderm patient. Since then, Yoram and Exoderm have appeared in all of our scientific presentations. At the same time, I, in the form of pre and postoperative views, have appeared in your presentation as one of your happy Exoderm patients. In a nutshell, at most of the academic conferences for the last few years, Yoram and I have been together just like Siamese twins.

Now that the other side of my body is gone, I have become quite unstable. I truly do not know how to handle this deep sorrow for the loss of my brother.

Yoram, I very much appreciate your great cooperation for the present boom of chemical peel in Asia. We, Asians will always admire you as Father of Chemical Peel. Especially in Japan and in China, Yoram Fintsi is a big-name. As a matter of fact, I have planned a special Exoderm project in China to please you in 2002.

Yoram, your work of art will be alive as long as my life is on earth. My twin brother will remain cheerful in my face. I will treasure my face as your memento and accompany it to whatever conference I may attend in the future, until I finally receive a call from the heaven.

Your twin brother,
Katsuya Takasu, M.D.
Nagoya, Japan
