One of the saddest and most touching entertainment stories that I have read this year involves, Selina Jen of the Taiwanese girl group S.H.E. Selina was injured in an accident while filming and 50% of her body was burnt.
The latest update on her condition was that it had taken a turn for the worse. From the report, Selina has a long, hard and painful road ahead of her to recovery. It also seems that she might not be able to walk normally as before. Soooo sad, isn't it? Let us all pray for this brave young lady.
Read the update on her condition below:
Selina Jen’s condition takes a bad turn
Ten days into her accident, Selina Jen’s condition worsens as she runs a fever from her open wounds
Selina Jen's condition has worsened since the filming accident which left her with burns on over 50% of her body 10 days ago.
Medical staff revealed that Selina, who turned 29 yesterday, had blood constantly oozing out of her wounds. She was also running a fever last Thursday and on her birthday.
More than six portions of her body, including her limbs and back, suffered third degree burns. Her face is still swollen. It was reported that it will take at least a year for Selina to recover fully. Even then, she might have trouble walking after that.
Her doctor suggested that visitations should be stopped temporarily. Besides Selina's immediate family and fiancé, no visitors are allowed. Fellow S.H.E members Hebe and Ella who had initially planned to visit their friend on her birthday had to call off the celebration due to her worsened condition.
Selina's father, who's affectionately known as "Father Jen" explained in an interview that his daughter's condition was not very stable at the moment. He said Selina remains strong and determined.
Her fiancé Richard Chang, finally broke down in tears seeing Selina in pain.
Having been by her side throughout the whole ordeal, he wrote a statement describing what Selina was going through.
"I've agreed with her not to talk or think about the accident or the pain. She had been so positive and brave, reminding herself to exercise her vocal cords and muscles despite the pain. When she couldn't take it anymore, she'd ask for more morphine. She'd cry and shiver as the morphine took effect. Every day she faces her pain with such great strength."
He added with a birthday wish for her, "Dear wife, the journey may be grueling but you will make it through. Happy Birthday and may you be reborn from fire!"
