Hong Kong veteran actor Liao Chun-hung is a TVB artist and is well-known for his role as "Big Grain" in "The Heavenly Master".
Liao Junxiong was unfortunately diagnosed with stage 4 stomach cancer three years ago, and experienced a life-and-death crisis three times in one year, underwent surgery to cut half of his stomach to save his life, and his weight was reduced from 95 kilograms to 72 kilograms.
After chemotherapy, Liao Junxiong's condition improved and his cancer index returned to normal, but he suddenly passed away on May 18.
Weng Jingjing, an insider in the circle, said that Liao Junxiong passed away in the early morning of May 18 at Hong Kong Tung Wah Hospital at the age of 64, and said that the treatment process was heartbreaking, and he hoped that his family would mourn and change.
Liao Junxiong entered the TVB actor training class at the age of 17 under the arrangement of his father, and successfully signed a contract with the TV station after graduation, and in the late 1990s, he went to Malaysia to develop, and once changed careers to business, and once made money, but later lost millions of Hong Kong dollars due to poor management.
Liao Chun-hung struggled to pay off his debts and returned to performing in front of the camera, with works such as "Anti-Black" and "Ideal Country".
He and his wife have a son and a daughter:
His son Liao Jiajue also entered the industry as an actor, graduated from TVB training classes, and mostly played bad characters such as gangsters, gangsters, and hooligans.
Liu Chun-hung's father, Liu Yun-sum, was the village mayor of Sheung Shui, the first vice chairman of Heung Yee Kuk in the New Territories, and was awarded the MBE of the Justice of the Peace in Hong Kong by the Queen of England.
Liao Junxiong's cousin is the famous martial arts actor Fu Sheng (singer Zhen Ni's husband), but unfortunately the latter died early in a car accident.
His father was well-connected, Liao Junxiong didn't want to study, so he was stuffed by his father into TVB to study in a training class, and at that time, he had not reached the legal age to sign a contract until he graduated, and it was his father who signed a contract with TVB on his behalf.
During the training class, Liao Junxiong became friends with Tang Zhenye, and he witnessed Tang Zhenye's love affair with Weng Meiling.
Weng Meiling died early, and Liao Junxiong publicly expressed pity many times, but Weng Meiling in his eyes was not only cute, but also very kind.
Regarding the process of Liao Junxiong's death, his friend Weng Jingjing revealed one or two, which seemed to be related to the local public hospital, and the media asked for family details, but Mrs. Liao was so sad that she couldn't respond, and only revealed that the public hospital was understaffed, which caused Liao Junxiong to suffer unnecessary pain.
On the evening of May 18, Liao Junxiong's daughter was interviewed by the media, and she revealed in detail what pain her father had endured in the past month or so.
It can be seen from the photos that when Liao Junxiong appeared in February, he was still in good spirits.
Liao's daughter, Poyi, said in an interview that her father's cancer had recurred earlier this year, and the cancer cells had spread from the stomach to the pancreas, and that he was in stable condition after a chemotherapy treatment.
The family was mentally prepared to fight cancer, but what they didn't expect was that it was not cancer that led to Liao Junxiong's rapid death, but a simple bile duct surgery.
In the process of fighting cancer, Liao Junxiong found that the bile ducts were blocked, and the complexion of the whole person turned yellow, and he needed to be admitted to the hospital for surgery.
However, Liao's bile duct surgery was not done well, which led to many problems and his body became weaker as a result.
Poyi said that after the bile duct surgery, Liao Chunxiong continued to have a fever and the stent surgery needed to be postponed, so he was transferred from Queen Mary Hospital to Tung Wah Hospital for recuperation, and had to wait for the inflammation to subside before returning to Queen Mary Hospital for surgery.
During this process, Liao Junxiong was very tormented, and he encountered new difficulties every time he returned to the doctor, including the leakage of the hole opened for bile duct surgery, which needed to be reopened, and then he said that the bile duct was still blocked, and he needed to open an additional hole on the other side of the body......
Liao Junxiong had constant check-ups, long-term blood draws and fasting, and in the later stages of his life, he could hardly eat anything, and his body became very weak.
Poyi said that before his death, his father kept going back and forth between Queen Mary Hospital and Tung Wah Hospital.
To the surprise of the family, the seriously ill Liao Chun-hung was transferred to the hospital, not by ambulance, but by rehabilitation bus, and Liao Chun-hung could only lie on an ordinary chair, once soaked due to vomiting, but fortunately his wife insisted on following the car to change his clothes in time.
Once transferred to the hospital, the process was very thrilling, Liao Junxiong's body temperature suddenly became so low, after being admitted to Tung Wah Hospital, he had to use the medical heater to blow all the time.
It was not easy, Liao Junxiong finally completed the bile duct stent surgery at Queen Mary Hospital, but the medical staff helped him "cross the bed", did not choose a safer "bed board", and only pulled him through the bed with a cloth, simple and rough techniques, Liao Junxiong's tail vertebrae were abrased, and finally turned into bedsores, and the wound did not heal.
Poyi also revealed that the hospital bed mattress was of poor quality, with a depression in the middle, and his father, who did not sleep well, had a bulging tail vertebrae during his hospitalization.
When he was admitted to Tung Wah Hospital, Liao Junxiong developed ascites and intestinal flatulence, and the doctor could not find the reason, so he did not dare to act rashly, and could not perform surgery for him to relieve him, so he needed to be observed before deciding.
Without warning, the hospital asked Liu to sign a consent form to refuse invasive treatment, i.e., the hospital would not give first aid in case of a dangerous situation.
After the family learned about it, they found out that Liao Junxiong's physical condition was already very poor.
Later, the hospital took a picture of Liao Junxiong's lungs, which had phlegm, and found that there were shadows in the lungs and signs of pneumonia, but no one informed the family about the incident.
Poyi was especially grateful to a good nurse during the interview, and the other party talked to them about a lot of details, and the family knew the true situation of Liao Junxiong, "She knew that my father missed two tumor follow-up appointments because of bile duct surgery, so she helped my father contact the oncologist at Queen Mary Hospital to follow up, and some doctors came to Tung Wah Hospital to see my father." ”
To Poyi's disappointment, when she saw that her father was having difficulty breathing due to phlegm in his throat, she immediately rang the bell and asked the nurse for help, but she received no support.
"At that time, my father was already going to use an oxygen mask, and after the nurse appeared, she only said that she must wear an oxygen mask, and there was no movement after speaking. In the end, we patted my dad on the back and helped him cough up the phlegm. The second time this happened, some nurses said that they could help him sputum and let us not pat his back, which would easily cause him to choke. The third time, the trainee nurse went to work, and my father had phlegm again, which already seemed to be very hard, but the other party was indifferent and kept taking finger blood to test blood sugar......"
Seeing Liao Chunxiong suffering, his family felt helpless.
Two days before his death, the hospital gave him painkiller injections due to pain in his tail vertebrae, after which he fell into a coma until he left.
Poyi revealed that his father did not leave any last words, because he and his family thought that they could be discharged from the hospital after dealing with the bile duct problem, and then concentrate on fighting cancer, "He was admitted to the hospital in April, although his body was weak, but the life support index was normal, we all thought that he would be discharged from the hospital soon, but we didn't expect that today's results would occur because of simple bile duct problems......"
In the end, Poyi said that she chose to speak out about her father's experience, not to hold the relevant public hospitals accountable, and that she understands that the serious shortage of manpower can lead to various problems, but as a family member, she wants to speak out about the difficulties that patients are facing.
Liao Junxiong applied for the 8th TVB artist training class in 1979, and his classmates included Tang Zhenye, Liao Qizhi, Liang Jiehua, Li Chengchang, Ai Wei, Jing Daiyin, Zhou Xiulan, Huang Zaoshi, Chen Anying, Chen Miner, Wu Bojun, etc.
During his time in TVB, Liao Junxiong participated in countless dramas, including "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" "Seven Monsters of Jiangnan" Zhang Asheng, "Genghis Khan" Ale, "Xue Rengui Zhengdong" Dong Kui, "Heaven and Earth Boy" Guo Liwen and so on.
Last year, Liao Junxiong was in good spirits and interviewed by the media, revealing the process of discovering that he was suffering from stomach cancer, "During that time, I thought that my stomach was uncomfortable, and I still felt hungry after eating, but I seemed to be very full, and I was very supportive after eating, so I went for a physical experience examination and found that there were cancer cells." ”
At that time, he revealed that he had been supporting his wife who had been in love for many years, and when he mentioned his wife, he couldn't hold back his tears, "Maybe because I have a family, because I have a wife, you don't need to worry when the children are older, in case I leave her (wife) alone, who will accompany her?" I have also experienced life and death, if you want to go, don't work hard, many things are already outside the body, you can't take them away. ”
When it comes to illness, Liao Junxiong was still very optimistic at that time, he said, "Cancer, I haven't experienced it before, I will remember it deeply, I will remember it deeply, I will remember it deeply, and I will use it in filming in the future." ”
However, a year later, he could no longer act.
