(Central station) Toddler in vegetative state responds to Keung To's song

Singer Keung To sent a message of encouragement to a father after the later said his daughter in vegetative state responded to Keung's song.

Chow Tin-yu, 6, was left in a vegetative state after she went through an operation to remove a tumor at Queen Mary Hospital last year.

Her parents challenged that mistakes were made during the surgery, causing a 58-minute delay in blood transfusion. They have filed a civil lawsuit against the Hospital Authority, hoping that the medical staff involved will be held accountable for the incident.

In a Facebook post last Friday, Chow's father said the girl seemed to respond to Keung's singing.

“It is rare to see such an obvious response,” the father wrote. The girl blinked her eyes and “it seems she wants to sing along.”

Netizens left messages to support the father, and many forwarded the post to Keung.

On Sunday, the singer recorded a message for the father, saying he did not know if his song had anything to do with her improvement but he would like to help.

He said it should be difficult for the father to take care of his daughter.

“Tin Yu please get well soon. I can sing the song to you in person if you get better,” he said.
