Emergency Contact | Consulate General of the United States Chengdu, China

Recently, I was asked to retell the story of my last days in China. May 2009. Something that still induces heart palpitations and anxiety. So, I had to dig back into my memory bank. I may need to finish writing my account of the story. My verbal story telling skills are part of the reason why most people never hear the full story.

HI Max,

I'm sorry it took so long to get back to you! I am doing much better now. The dr.s advised not to take any long flights for a bit, so Im laying low in Kunming for a few more days then back to Beijing before I fly home to the states, Please let me know what you will need from me. I have my invoices, but due to miscommunication I was checked into the first hospital in Kangding under a Chinese name. I was able to correct the records for the second hospital in Chengdu, once I realized where I was and what had happened. That Sunday/Monday are still a bit fuzzy. I hope the first hospital records will be ok for your records. Im not sure I can go back there and change it now. Will you need translations into english?

Just so glad to be out of there and feeling better. Looking forward to being back State side.

Let me know if you have questions and when the best time to call you would be if you need to talk.

Best,
Su-Jung
