Suan & Dung

The first to approach me and request a can of ENSURE. Suan with devoted father, Dung, a rice farmer from a village 4 hours away. Suan is 26-years old and has the equivalent of a frontal lobotomy. He was hit by a motorbike 65 days ago and his skull was splintered, front and back. He needs a further operation (skull is being regrown like Tam's was) but he is too frail at the moment. He recognizes Dad and has limited responses, but Dad hopes his memory will be completely restored if/when he has the next operation.
