At the Japanese Red Cross Hiroshima Hospital, Toshiko Sasaki, an atomic bomb survivor, was treated for burnt skin on her lower left leg around early October 1945 at the Japanese Red Cross Hiroshima Hospital. Toshiko Sasaki was exposed to the Hiroshima atomic bomb and received her injuries at Toyo Steel, 105 Tenma-cho, Hiroshima City. She was sitting on a chair at work when she saw the glow of the Hiroshima atomic bomb and sat down to sit down. The house collapsed, and he was compressed by a beam, especially in the knee area of the left lower limb, resulting in multiple wounds to the tibia, cracks in the skull, and soft tissues. She was admitted to Hiroshima Hospital of the Japanese Red Cross Society. There was no nerve damage, and automatic motion of the left thumb was possible, but severe contracture of the knee joint was observed. He was in passive position of the left lower limb due to pain during exercise. Blood test at the Japanese Red Cross Hospital showed that his white blood cell count was 6200.
The Japanese Red Cross Hiroshima Hospital, which became the Hiroshima Army Hospital Red Cross Hospital during the war, was located in Sendamachi 1-chome, Naka-ku, Hiroshima City, 1.6 km south of the hypocenter. All wooden buildings on the site collapsed and were soon destroyed by fire. The main building, a three-story reinforced concrete structure, escaped destruction by fire. Steel window frames were destroyed and glass shattered into pieces. The interior of the building was also destroyed, with ceilings falling, walls crumbling, and chairs and desks toppling over, making it difficult to set foot inside.
