To our beloved King - may good health and strength return and be with you always! We need you, but we also want you to be well first.

A Long and Healthy life, my King.

I dont think there is a more moving and touching message of support to your king on this forum. If he is reading this forum I am sure he will gather strength from those words. You make me proud to be a fellow farang abroad.

King Bhumibol is Thailand and I am sure Thai's, expats and tourists that understand just how much this country is dependent on his firm but fair respected ruling hand are all praying for a speedy recovery......

BANGKOK, July 15 - His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej's condition was gradually improving, and his right hand could move normally, but intravenous medication would continue to be administered to him, according to Bureau of the Royal Household.

The Announcement No 53 of the Bureau of the Royal Household issued on Saturday said that HM the King could move his right hand normally, but that the royal physician team would continue to give him intravenous medication until the dosage was completed.

The physicians were satisfied with HM the King general condition, as his blood pressure, heart rate and breathing was normal. He also was reported as having slept well.

HM the King had experienced intermittent twitching in his right hand and his heart rate increased slightly on Thursday night.

An x-ray computerised tomography scan (CT scan) of the monarch’s brain revealed minute subdural bleeding in the left frontal area. After medication was given intravenously the minor seizure subsided.

The 84-year-old monarch was admitted to Siriraj Hospital in Sept 2009 with fever, fatigue and a lung inflammation.

He has since recovered from these symptoms but has remained in hospital ever since for nourishment and continued physical therapy. (MCOT online news)
