Excerpts from a report for your reference --- "Big Fool" Sung Kwai On died of cancer recurrence (Sing Tao) Friday, August 28, 2009 05:30 (Xinhua) (Sing Tao Daily) Famous character actor "Big Fool" Sung Kwai On, due to the recurrence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, close to zero o'clock this morning at the Baptist Hospital, the death of the disease at the age of 54 years old. When the actor was dying, his friends rushed to the hospital to see him for the last time. Tsang Chi-wai and Cheung Ka-fai arrived at the hospital with a worried look on their faces, while Fatty's mom even broke down in tears, making the atmosphere there a gloomy one. After his nasopharyngeal cancer was confirmed in 2004, Dafu has been fighting tenaciously against the grim reaper and his condition was once under control. However, the cancer has recently recurred and the cancer cells have spread to the major organs, including the lungs, making him physically weak and he was admitted to the Baptist Hospital for treatment again last month. It is reported that Dafu recently called his friends frequently and urged them to pay attention to their health, and even asked his friends to take care of his wife and two sons who are 30 and less than 10 years old respectively, showing great concern. In the early stage of his cancer treatment, he refused to make a will, but recently the cancer has spread to his lungs and he has lost 30 pounds, so he changed his tone and asked his friends to take care of his family on his deathbed, and expressed his worry about his young son and wife, who are less than 10 years old. Nasopharyngeal cancer worsened and he died at the age of 54. He joined the show business in 1975 and played the role of Dazhu in the movie "Prison Fever" in 1987, a role that became so popular that he was later called Dazhu in many movies, a rarity in the industry. Since then, he has been a popular actor in the industry and has made more than 300 movies. In 2003, he even ran for the election of District Councilor, but he lost in the end. Although he has to recuperate from his illness in recent years, as the breadwinner of his family, he occasionally goes to the Mainland to make money on stage and make cameo appearances in front of the screen; he has admitted that he is quite worried about his financial problems a few years ago. The last time he appeared in public was in April this year on the program "Fat Mom's Private Dining" hosted by Fat Mom, when he shared his success in fighting cancer. He said that after he found out that he had cancer in 2004, he was hospitalized for chemotherapy and succeeded in fighting the cancer, but he has lost his sense of taste. He said, "When I eat now, I need to have a lot of imagination, like when I eat a bowl of roasted goose, I have to remember its flavor and imagine that it tastes good. He has given up smoking completely, but sometimes he still drinks alcohol secretly. Sickness is not scary, the key lies in how to face it."
