\nIn 2021, she was diagnosed with stage III breast cancer with lymph node metastasis.<\/strong>
\nAfter undergoing a mastectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation\u2014and continuing hormone therapy\u2014

beginning with her appearance at the Rising Japan Music Fest.\n<\/p>\n

\nSince then, she has performed the national anthems<\/strong> of both Japan and the United States at numerous official events,
including Cedars-Sinai, Coming of Age ceremonies, Utah Nihon Matsuri, Grassroots Judo Winter Nationals,
and breast cancer charity judo tournaments.\n<\/p>\n

was selected as the official theme song of Japan Film Festival 2025, where she performed it live at the festival\u2019s Welcome Party.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n
