Benny Chin's update 091119

God is good! Praise God that the healing is already taking place in dad’s body.

Last night when we visited dad, he was able to move his fingers and shoulders. Many brothers and sisters mentioned that dad has been able to respond to them with some motions here and there.

Josh arrived at the hospital from Vancouver at around 8pm last night. Dad managed to gently squeeze our hands and tried to connect with us through his limited motions.

We went to the hospital around noon time today and were denied the visit. Perhaps it is not advisable to visit dad other than the regular visiting hours (6pm-8pm) anymore.

The latest update is from tonight’s visit. Dad is still in coma. We did not get to see the doctor today, and have requested to make an appointment with him. We were told by the nurse that his right side is more responsive than his left, and from the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) dad has progressed from 3 out of 15 to 5 out of 15. We noticed that he can move his right fingers more than yesterday, and was able to lift up his left hand for a few centimeters.

Please continue to pray for dad’s awakening (the sooner, the better)! Pray that no further bleeding will occur in his brain during this critical period; lung infection will be minimal; heart can regain its full strength again.


In Him,
Tien, Patrick, and Josh
