#StrongerPor: Nation prays for actor Por as he remains in coma

Thailand is praying for the television star Thrisadee “Por” Sahawong who has been in a coma for more than a week after being struck down by dengue fever.

Por’s condition remained critical on Tuesday after he suffered kidney failure on Monday night, as well as low blood pressure and a low blood platelet count. Although he has been responding to treatment, he is being closely monitored, said doctors at Ramathibodi Hospital at a press conference on Tuesday morning, as reported by Komchadluek.

Por was reportedly transferred to the hospital on Monday afternoon after his condition worsened

The 37-year-old actor became a household name after he was crowned CLEO magazine’s “Most Eligible Bachelor” in 2004. Por was widely praised for his lead performance in the classic lakorn remake “Village headman Lee and Miss Ma” in 2009, which propelled him to super-stardom.

The hashtags #PorThrisadee and #StrongerPor have begun trending on Twitter as fans and local media send their love and best wishes to the actor on social media.
