Mor Lam Singer's CPR Saves Fan at Udon Thani Temple Fair
Mor Lam singer Bee Wilawan, a former nurse, saved a 55-year-old LGBTQ+ fan who collapsed during a temple fair performance in Udon Thani by performing CPR for several minutes until his pulse returned. The man, known locally as 'Je Tia,' has since regained consciousness in hospital and thanked Bee, promising to attend her future shows.
A miracle has come true: 'Je Tia' has recovered after female Mor Lam singer Bee Wilawan jumped on stage to perform CPR. The patient sends thanks and says once fully healed, he will go watch Mor Lam again. Bee Wilawan, the lead singer of the Rabiap Wathasilp troupe, rushed down from the stage to help after hearing villagers say 'let him go in peace.' On November 13, reporters updated the case where Bee performed CPR on an LGBTQ+ individual who collapsed unconscious during the 'toey la' dance segment at a Kathin ceremony in Ban Kok Sa-ad, Kok Sa-ad subdistrict, Mueang district, Udon Thani province, on the morning of November 11. The patient's pulse returned, and emergency responders rushed him to Udon Thani Hospital for urgent care.
The patient's two older sisters, Mrs. Prang and Mrs. Samwang, thanked Bee for performing CPR before hospitalization. They revealed their brother regularly enjoyed drinking and watching Mor Lam. They hope for a full recovery and plan to bring him to thank the troupe again if they perform nearby.
Latest update: the miracle is real. Mr. Tun Noi, 55, an LGBTQ+ individual ('Je Tia') from Ban Pong, Chiang Yuen subdistrict, Mueang district, Udon Thani, is now safe. He has regained consciousness and smiled, thanking Bee Wilawan for the CPR. He says he's recovered now and will come watch again when fully healed, flashing a two-finger salute.
Bee Wilawan said when she jumped on stage, the patient initially had no pulse; she thought he was gone. She decided to perform CPR for about five minutes until a faint pulse returned, then continued. Villagers later took turns helping. Initially everyone wondered if she was really a nurse, but her troupe knew she used to be one. At first some villagers said 'let him go in peace,' but she was determined to save him. Even though exhausted, she continued until his pulse returned. She learned he was in the ICU and is glad she could help a fan. She wishes him a safe recovery.
