Rumored Suffering Cancer, Lost 30lbs - Cheung Tat Ming: I'm Seriously ill

48 year old Cheung Tat Ming is impatient and playful. He had always been an activist in the entertainment circle, but in the recent month he suddenly disappeared and rarely appears in public. Last week, it was rumored he has cancer. The media followed him for 48 hours and discovered the isolated Tat Ming had turned into a stick figure with severe hair loss and he looked haggard. Last Thursday, he was spotted in Causeway Bay at a clinic and was seen lacking physical coordination. He deliberately put on a cap and mouth mask to hide his appearance, but when asked if he had cancer? He denied: "My illness is pretty serious, I don't know how long I have to rest for."

Cheung Tat Ming began his career after graduating from The Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts. He is an talented artist, who has participated in films, TV series, musicals and dubbing work. He's also a successful comedian, who has had stand-up comedy shows at the Hong Kong Coliseum.

After Tat Ming appeared at Andy Lau's fan gathering to do a standup comedy show, he was rarely seen in public thereafter. Recently he even stopped playing with his favorite Weibo and basically cut off all relations with the public. "Tat Ming hasn't appeared in a long time, a friend said he's dark and dry now. He lost a lot of hair and is very skinny. Really not sure if it's sick or not." A reader said.

Reporters spent the last 48 hours following Tat Ming and were surprised to see him avoiding the cameras. When asked of his current health condition? He forced a smile: "My illness is pretty serious. Of course I won't be working while I'm sick. I don't know how long I have to rest for. (It was rumored you have cancer?) Whatever, you all can guess what it is and say whatever you want." With that, Tat Ming called a taxi and left. Reporters discovered the clinic Tat Ming was at, is a clinic specialized in providing services to help patients clean out their arteries and veins. According to one of the staff at the clinic, reveals: "An average patient who has gone through chemotherapy or are undergoing chemotherapy have a lot of residue in their arteries and veins. Also, their immune system is very weak. Cleaning out the arteries/veins helps purify the body and make the person feel better."

Good friend Anthony Wong reveals Tat Ming had cancer before: "I cannot say what type of cancer he had, but he has already recovered from it! He's already all better." But his good friend is losing a lot of hair and is very skinny now, Anthony said: "That is the side effects of chemotherapy. Of course a sick person will lose weight! He already found a doctor, and is all better! He's fine, you all don't have to worry."
