Pang Xianglin, an 80-year-old veteran actor who had performed in many classic eight o'clock movies, was recently reported to have been unable to eat due to functional deterioration due to old age and esophageal atresia. He was originally scheduled to be admitted to the hospital for a nasogastric tube installation. Unexpectedly, he passed away peacefully on September 1 due to cardiopulmonary failure. He was 80 years old. Yang Guimei, CEO of the "Guitian Culture and Art Foundation" who has been silently providing warmth for many years, was deeply moved after learning the bad news today (7th) and immediately called Mrs. Pang Xianglin to express her concern.
Yang Guimei has been taking care of senior artists through the foundation for a long time. She revealed that this fate began more than two years ago. Actor Wang Shujuan informed Pang Xianglin that he had suffered a stroke and was living in a nursing home, and she immediately went to visit. At that time, Pang Xianglin had to wear diapers, had difficulty moving, and was unable to speak due to the injury to his vocal cords. Yang Guimei enthusiastically encouraged him to do more rehabilitation and personally taught him to exercise his hands in a wheelchair. However, Pang Xianglin, who did not like to trouble others by nature, shyly expressed his gratitude to her.
Over the past two years, Yang Guimei has continued to visit and send caring red envelopes. She emotionally expressed that in addition to the foundation's assistance in filing cases, her colleagues in the entertainment industry are full of warmth. Her friend Wang Shujuan once brought Kou Shixun, Zhou Danwei, Lin Youxing and others to visit her. Considering the huge long-term nursing and medical expenses, everyone even voluntarily sent money to help in private, showing the full human touch in the entertainment industry.
In fact, during Pang Xianglin's lifetime, his eldest son Pang Yunlong served as the main caregiver, and his younger son Pang Yunhui, who worked abroad, was mainly responsible for nursing care and medical expenses. Pang Yunhui learned earlier that the foundation had been silently lending a helping hand over the past two years, and felt quite surprised and grateful.
In this regard, Yang Guimei admitted that it was not the family members who took the initiative to apply to the foundation, but she took the initiative to register a case for care after Wang Shujuan informed her. However, she thinks this is completely irrelevant. Her only starting point and focus "is to take good care of Pang Xianglin." In addition, she also felt distressed to reveal that Pang Xianglin's wife is currently suffering from cancer and her physical condition is also worrying. She hopes that the outside world will give her family more space and warmth.
