Dr Tan said that the Amiel-Tison Neurological Assessment results show mild to moderate damage to Charlene’s brain which is far better than expected. Dez was pleasantly surprised as he thought that Charlene might qualify for moderate to severe condition.

Dr Tan also said that Charlene probably has problem with suck & swallow co-ordination and might be on feeding tube for long time.
She also said that the doctors thought that Charlene will choke and die when taken off the respirator but she did not.
