Man ‘rises from dead’ with speech impairment and vision loss healed

Mr. Nguyen Van Be, 71, in the Mekong Delta City of Can Tho, after a clinical death, oddly recovered from being sightless and voiceless. He is now voluble and a ball of fire as if he had never put up with impairments. Mr. Be speaks about sudden inexplicable illness of over 40 years. He was born into poverty, which gave rise to the need to follow his father to laboriously work for a living since he was little. He started his own family at the age of 26, and the tough life never left him. On an afternoon in 1977, while working with others, Mr. Be, a heathy 27-year-old breadwinner, all of a sudden felt malaise and shakiness, and collapsed on the ground and fainted. He then was hospitalized and was unconscious for three days. Waking up surrounded by people, he was powerless to verbally respond to the attention given to him. He realized he had lost the ability to even utter a word, despite the longing to talk. He grabbed a piece of paper and wrote “want to chat but unable to produce speech”. He had turned mute. One month of treatment in a Can Tho hospital did not identify the causes of his inability to speak. He still could hear and had normal health. Clinics in the newly liberated time when facilities weren’t at their best, and were unable to offer him extensive analysis as wished. His family had to earn living by making baskets to sell at the market. His three children were also needy and couldn't provide him with much financial support for a medical cure. During 20 years of nonverbal communication, Mr. Be remained optimistic, thankful at least for being literate and having hearing. He tried to lead a normal life with no consideration of himself as disadvantaged. “I gradually got accustomed to the sound of his clap every time he wanted to talk. After one short run when I got to him, he would start writing things down on a paper,” recalls Mai Thi De, 71, Mr. Be’s wife. The worst was yet to come. On an October morning in 1997, during a …

Ha Long hand-made squid paste: A delicacy of Quang Ninh province

The main ingredient to make the dish is big fresh squid caught in Ha Long’s waters, which weigh from 1.5 kilogrammes to 2 kilogrammes each. Other kinds of squid cannot result in squid paste as chewy and tasty as that made from Ha Long squid. After being cleaned, the squid is seasoned with “secret” spices and hand-pounded until the mixture becomes a fine paste.

If it is too high, the cakes will be over cooked and dry. A perfect squid cakes must be well-yellow in its look while juicy on the inside.
