Former DPP chair entrusts Sisy Chen amid worsened cancer
Former Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) chairman Shih Ming-teh, 82, has been revealed to be critically ill with liver cancer. Media personality Sisy Chen disclosed this on "TVBS Situation Room," expressing her agitation at Shih’s request for her to look after his two daughters. Shih, a Catholic, called Chen from the hospital ward to leave his final wishes with her, as he was mindful of the possibility of falling into a coma. Chen retorted, questioning why he would entrust his last words to someone who may die before him. Shih’s battle with recurring cancer led to his admission to Taipei Veterans General Hospital, where he opted for electrocauterization treatment instead of Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization (TACE), but unfortunately, this approach did not yield positive results. Recently, he suffered a severe hemorrhage and had to return to the intensive care unit for emergency kidney dialysis as his condition became critical.2023/12/05 21:40
