Jimmy Lin’s Road to Recovery: A Quick Update
On August 23, the director from Linkou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital let us know that our favourite Taiwanese actor, Jimmy Lin, has made a solid jump forward in his healing journey.
Inside the Hospital
Far from the drama of a nasogastric (NG) tube cramming through his nose, he’s been home and taking it easy.
- He’s recuperating in the comfort of his own living room.
- The hospital’s doctor confirmed that the NG tube wasn’t needed after all, thanks to the smooth progress of his treatment.
- Jimmy’s agency, Jimmy Creative, took to their official channels for a quick not‑to‑spread‑rumors shout‑out:
“Jimmy is recuperating. Please don’t spread rumors based on falsehoods. If there’s more to share, we’ll let you know.”
The Road to Resilience
Though the road back hasn’t entirely cleared, we’re seeing defiant forward moves from Jimmy.
- On July 22, Jimmy had a Nigh‑the‑Speedy accident: his Tesla clipped a roadside sign at a Taoyuan City partition.
- He starred in the drama as a driver, half of whose class brassed audience was his 6‑year‑old son, Jenson.
- Swiftly, a crowd of good‑will heroes pulled them out of the flaming scar‑circuit.
- Jenson emerged with minor scrapes, while Jimmy was rushed straight to ICU for treating arm and facial injuries.
Why the Humor?
After the face surgery that left him unable to talk as clearly as before, he also had all the difficulty eating – the bone remodelling caused him a tough time swallowing.
Media reports spun a fork‑night speculation: a nasogastric tube might keep him fed for the next three days whenever his BM (bone marks) keep him from sipping from the mouth.
Let’s keep it breezy: the recovery timeline is 3 days to peek back its mouth smile into liquids. According to the latest updates, he’s slowly getting back to normal bites.
Earlier News
