Died in 10 years from leukemia, which is faster after all, it was a consequence of radiation exposure. Two-year-old Sadako was at home at the time of the «Baby» detonation. The blast wave carried her through the window, but the girl remained alive. When the mother found her, she did not notice any visible injuries on her daughter. Until 1954, Sadako grew up as an ordinary girl. In January 1955, a tumor appeared on her legs, and on February 20, the girl was hospitalized with a diagnosis of leukemia.

Ukraine
A passion for the fine arts, particularly graphics, was ignited within me at a very young age. I recall my mother hiding black markers and pencils from me during my childhood. She was deeply concerned that I only seemed to be interested in this specific color. I would draw incessantly, anywhere and everywhere. My drawings diverged significantly from the conventional portrayal of beautiful and joyful princesses; instead, they depicted everyday scenes from the lives of ordinary people, often tinged with a hint of tragedy. It's possible that I was inherently inclined to believe that ordinary human happiness is fleeting and inherently trivial. To me, the true essence of life lies in amassing a spectrum of experiences — both positive and negative — and ultimately triumphing over them.
