WHEN she heard the shocking news that her husband had been struck by lightning, Mrs Chen knew she had to provide him with whatever help he needed.
'I spent the whole night reading up on lightning strike victims, what they go through, and how they feel, so I can take care of him,' said the 50-year-old, who did not want to give her full name.
Her husband, Mr Chen Yuk Fu, 62, regained consciousness on Sunday - more than 10 hours after he was struck while playing golf last Saturday afternoon.
Mrs Chen has visited him in the intensive care unit of Changi General Hospital, where he is in a stable condition. She said she was relieved he could recognise her.
She told The Straits Times how she cried for hours until she lost her voice, after a friend told her about the accident at Laguna National Golf and Country Club in Changi.
Mr Chen, a technology firm director, suffered burns to his head, neck and hand.
