On August 6, Daidai and Qingyan Wang visited their father, Dr. Bingzhang Wang, in Shaoguan, Guangdong. Daidai and Qingyan barely recognized the father they had not seen for 10 months. A very thin and pale Dr. Wang moved towards them in slow, uneven steps, holding on to the wall to steady himself.

Separated by a thick glass partition and connected only by a telephone, Daidai and Qingyan spoke through tears to their father for about 40 minutes. Daidai and Qingyan were most concerned for their father's failing health. Dr. Wang said he feels a temperature difference between his left and right limbs, perhaps as a result of uneven blood flow to the limbs from phlebitis, a condition that must be treated immediately to prevent another stroke.

On July 2, Dr. Wang's parents filed a medical parole appeal to Mr. Fu Seng Zhang of the PRC Department of Justice (please see attachment). Now we need your urgent follow-up with the Chinese government to help secure his medical parole.

Thank you for your continued support of Dr. Wang and monitoring of his health.

Sincerely yours,

Mei Wang
