M&K
had to continually coordinate with Travel insurers, Vietnam contact and
Consulate, and update everyone all the time, over the whole time. As we organised for a Drs meeting through official channels we were granted official permission from the DG of Hospital 115 to visit with Ken each day. Not many locals get to visit ICU - they gather on mats outside the door and wait for news. M&K spoke with a few each day, some with very good english. Lovely kind people who are so patient and look out for each other.

We had an update with Dr An with Kiet our Travel Insurers Vietnam contact - Dad had slipped back into a deeper coma - very dangerous condition with very low BP. Then we were able to visit with Dad together and for 15 minutes. So much less traumatic to visit together.
At about 7pm we went back to the hospital as felt we had to but were told no to seeing Ken. We just took each step at a time and tried to keep busy.
Friday 13 Sept
May was able to visit Ken for 10 minutes - one only visitor today. No change in condition, still critical with heart the biggest concern - very low BP and beats per minute.
