DEFTONES: Baixista Chi Cheng em coma após acidente de viação

O baixista dos Deftones Chi Cheng está em coma no Hospital San Jose como consequencia de um acidente de viação em Santa Clara na passada segunda -feira.
O vocalista da banda, Chino Moreno, confirmou a notícia mas não quis entrar em detalhes.
O mesmo afirma:
"It deeply saddens me to inform you all that our brother Chi Cheng [DEFTONES bassist] was involved in a terrible car accident [Monday] night. He is currently in a Northern California hospital in serious, but stable condition. I am on my way up north right now to be by his side, along with the rest of our bandmates and family. Chi is one of the strongest people I know, and I'm praying that his strength will get him through this. Please say a prayer for him as well."
Cheng, de 38 anos, é também um reconhecido poeta. Em 2000 lançou um CD com a sua poesia entitulado "The Bamboo Parachute."
Os Deftones tem estado a trabalhar no seu sexto album de estudio, "Eros", com data prevista de lançamento para a Primavera de 2009.

É uma triste noticia.
Espero que Cheng ultrapasse esta tragedia.

Ele vai com toda a certeza recuperar do sofrimento

Sendo ele o grande musico que é tenho a certeza que vai sair dessa fatalidade.

Chi Cheng Update

Hello Everyone,

I am back from up North visiting our brother Cheng. His condition remains the same - serious, but stable. We, along with the entire Cheng family, would like to extend our gratitude to everyone that's said a prayer or sent out their positive thoughts to Chi. Your support means more than you know.

During his recovery process, Chi's mother has asked that each day we spread a little bit of good in his name. So each day Deftones will be posting what you can do to help Chi recover. Today, she has asked that you all remember to buckle your seat belts, and remind those you love to buckle up. By doing something so little in his name, you will be helping him find the strength to recover.

Thank you, and please check back daily.

Hello Everyone,

I just had the pleasure of speaking with Chi's mother. She, as well as the entire Cheng family, would again like to thank you for all your love and support and knows God is healing Chi because of your prayers, love and good work.

This Sunday saw the first signs of your prayers in action. Chi was able to hear and respond to his father's request to move his lower lip. His father also administered a tendon reflex test, of which both legs responded with movement. Doctors continue to remain optimistic, and the energy at the hospital remains very positive.

The family would also like to send a special thank you out to the three off duty EMTs that stopped shortly after the accident and saved Chi's life. It was by the Grace of God that these three individuals happened to be traveling on the road with medical gear in tow at the time of the accident. If not for them, the chances of Chi making to the hospital alive would have been poor.

Please, keep your prayers, thoughts, and love coming!

Ele vai ter muita força para recuperar.
Estamos todos com ele.

As melhoras para ele , de certeza que ele vai melhorar :
mta força

Lamentavelmente estes acidente deixam sempre marcas para toda a vida, mas deus é grande!

Hello Friends,

Chi continues to be strong. Since his arrival at the hospital, he's had several probes attached to his brain that monitor and help control certain brain activity such as the ICP (brain pressure). Due to the activity remaining steady as well as the numbers coming back positive, today doctors are began removing the probes. We are so grateful for the small victories and know that your prayers and loving energy are what is keeping him progressing forward. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all your prayers. Please keep them coming.

The good deeds going around are so wonderful!

Chi Update 11/18

Hello Friends,

My apologies for the delay in updates. Chi's condition remains the same - serious, but stable. He still lies in a coma, however his vitals (heart, lungs, and blood pressure) all exhibit very stable functions and doctors have begun removing much of the excess monitoring equipment. Chi remains strong in his fight to recover.

Winston Churchill once said, "Never give in - in nothing, great or small, large or petty, except to convictions of honour and good sense." Today, please be especially aware of your personal choices. Never give in to pressure and try not to be discouraged. Your good choices each day will bring good things back to you and create a better life for you and yours.

Moving forward, I will be creating a new blog dedicated to my daily updates. It will take me a few days to get this up and running, so please bear with me. Deftones will continue to update you on Chi's condition when there's a significant change in his condition.

Thank you again for keeping Chi in your prayers. It's keeping all of is strong.

Our love to you all,
Jeanne

Chi Update 12/9/08

Hello,

Chi remains in a coma, and as of this morning there's been no significant change in his condition. Last week he was moved out of the Intensive Care Unit and transferred to a brain rehabilitation hospital in Northern California. The hospital specializes in the care and management of traumatic and non-trauma related brain injuries with a team of highly skilled therapists, nurses and consultants. He's in great hands.

Please continue to pray for our brother, and thank you all for your love and support.
