Sat 7-Sept
After dinner at The Grand Hotel, Ken and a few friends decided to walk across the road to the park. It started to rain so they hurried back - a tragic accident happened that night due to many factors, mostly darkness, raining and a speeding motorcycle. It all happened so quickly but witnesses heard a thump turned and Ken was on the road, unconscious. The motorcycle rider jumped on his bike and sped off. Locals rushed Ken into a taxi and took him straight to the Vung Tau hospital, as they knew the ambulance would take awhile. He was listed as critical and the doctors worked on Ken much of the night. Wounds on his head and legs were stitched. He suffered 5 or more cardiac arrests. His friend Bob Wyer stayed with him most of the night and saw Ken battle for life.
Sun 8-Sept
One of HCMC's new ambulances was sent up from the city to transport Ken to the city's best State hospital and the only one adequate for Intensive care patients. Ken and Bob arrived mid-afternoon, after many attempts to keep Ken alive, with the sirens going the whole time.
