Yunnan Internet Celebrity in Critical Condition from Brain Hemorrhage, 26-Year-Old Wife in Tears: What About Four Children?

Recently, 32-year-old internet celebrity “A-Kui from Yunnan” suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage after a livestream and was rushed to the ICU for treatment. His 26-year-old wife, Tang Sanmei, broke down in tears, lamenting, “What will happen to our four kids at home?”

During a livestream on October 6, “A-Kui from Yunnan” mentioned that his body couldn’t take it anymore, feeling dizzy and having headaches, saying, “I can’t go on, I’m going to pass out.” The livestream was then abruptly ended.

On October 12, the staff of his team informed Red Star News that A-Kui is still undergoing intensive care treatment in the hospital’s ICU, with a not very optimistic prognosis, but his family has not given up hope.

One staff member said, “A-Kui has always been the pillar of the family, not only taking care of elderly parents but also four young children, including a pair of twins who are only a few months old.”

A-Kui, a 32-year-old internet celebrity from Yunnan Zhaotong, is a self-media creator known for incorporating local features and ethnic cultural elements in his video works.

On Douyin, his account “A-Kui from Yunnan” has 730,000 followers, while on Kuaishou, his account has 1.09 million followers.

His wife, 26-year-old Tang Sanmei, is also a self-media creator with millions of followers.

After A-Kui fell ill, Tang Sanmei was devastated and posted, “What will happen to our four kids, what will happen to our elderly parents, please wake up soon.”

It is reported that their four children range from 7 years old to a pair of twins who are only 5 months old.

On October 9, the account of “A-Kui from Yunnan” issued a message stating that they will not ask for donations or transfers from fans. Since A-Kui’s illness, many people have posed as him online to deceive fans into making donations, cautioning everyone to be aware and avoid falling victim to such scams.

The message also mentioned that A-Kui is currently in a comatose state, and while there are slight improvements according to the hospital, they are still waiting for a miracle. Any updates will be promptly shared with the public.

On October 6, A-Kui suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and was urgently taken to the hospital for diagnosis of brainstem hemorrhage. Due to the severity of the condition, he underwent cranial surgery.

The critical condition report issued by the doctors showed that the hemorrhage had reached the brain ventricle system, leading to brain edema, brain herniation, and central respiratory circulation failure.

Cerebral hemorrhage, also known as a brain hemorrhage, occurs when blood vessels in the brain suddenly rupture, forming a localized blood clot that compresses surrounding brain tissues, resulting in a series of severe symptoms and diseases.

In the past, cerebral hemorrhage was considered a disease of the elderly, but nowadays, more and more young and middle-aged people are becoming victims of this condition.

On October 14, 2023, mainland Chinese actor Zhao Mingyuan passed away due to a cerebral hemorrhage at the age of 42.

In January 2021, Sun Yixuan, a 19-year-old internet celebrity with nearly 500,000 followers, died suddenly from a cerebral hemorrhage.

Also in the same month, Sun Qiaolu, the actress portraying Ling Meiqi in the TV series “Balala the Fairies”, passed away at the age of 25 from a suspected heart attack.
