Man I have been a fan of the defines for 14 years and to see chi this way makes me feel sad. Keep fighting bro my best wishes and support to his family.
I lost a friend just like this two years ago....he was on life support for 31 days.....seeing Chi like this really brings back the vision on my friend Isrie. Seeing him in that state was the hardest thing. Hope you are not in pain my friend....
This a message to EVERYBODY: don't trust the stupid mass media, telling you that Chi came out of his coma, this is fucking bullshit. Chi has been in a semi-conscious state for a HUGE while now, and still is. It's not the first time they report a one-year-old event as news. He did NOT wake up one or two days ago, get your facts straight, people ! Yes, he moved his feet on request not too long ago but these are still baby steps, I assure you. Much respect.
@MrVesanique I agree with you about not trusting the media. I first heard this just this morning listening to Sixx Sense on my XM. I've heard of the Deftones but never listened to their stuff until just now. What made me interested when I heard about this on XM was because they were speaking about a Bass player, Chi, just waking up from over 3 years in a coma. I'm also a Bass player. My daughter was hit by a drunk driver almost 2 years ago. She too was just like Chi and is still recovering.
@RJFLAUSA It is very possible to live an almost normal life again after such an injury. I am watching it happen every day. Chi will be OK although it may still take more time. Nice video!
@martinedmonds0n Yea, it's really heart-wrenching seeing anybody in this condition. It's humbling to think that his family has been fighting for him for 3 years now. I can't imagine what they must be going through.
@martinedmonds0n I dont found this horrible at all, I was deeply touched to see his family there for him; his eyes look distant but there's plenty of life in his heart. I wish his bandmats would spend more time with him, I hope they actually do
I'm also happy to hear Piano played, but I have to ask, what version is it? It's not the album version, it has a different rhythm. Is it from a demo? Did you play it yourself? Much, much love.
@jravell I've just put the EYEWTKAS version in Audicity and edited it. I thought that lower version would fit in, with the kind of emotion you can see in the pictures.
Can his facial hair not grow while he's in a coma? I know it's a weird thing to ask, but I'm just wondering if his hair functions stop while he's in the state he's in? I notice he got a haircut too!
@Dorko93 are you fucking serious? tell me that you've brain injury or stuff like that, please, please, i don't want to loose more faith in humanity because of you, no one deserve this, oh my god...
@DavidTCIC I can't ask a fucking question about whether or not the human facial hair still functions on a semi-conscious or unconscious person? Fuck you, you self-righteous cock.
@DavidTCIC If his hair is still growing, then why doesn't he have a terrorist beard? Either someone is touching up his beard or his hair isn't growing since the accident. It's a valid question, you obnoxious prick.
man that's just awful :( good luck chi, keep fighting! at least you know that you have tens of thousands of people all over the world wishing you the best, we know you can do it :)
Wow man, trully emotional photos to see. Hard to type what kind of feelings these produce. Im not religious but i just hope/wish so much for the medical profession to do everything possible to bring this inspirational human back to lucidity. To Chi's family and carers I wish you all the best and my heart just bleeds for you all. I remember a week after his accident just sitting and crying wishing I could travel stateside and have some kind of miracle effect on his condition. This feeling remains
GOD is WITH YOU & the lord is gonna bring YOU back! The harder it gets the harder I pray! Bless you brother now you will be in my prays! I know the lord is gonna make the miracle...
Had to stop this. He was always my favorite band member from the deftones. Ther first pic of Chi made me burst into tears; just couldnt watch it. Stay strong and hang in there chi; I know we'll have you back one day. Not one day goes by were I dont think about you.
Love you brother and love the 'oneloveforchi' community. Were gonna get him back.
I didn't realize just how bad off he was. Damn Chi you don't deserve this. May you find peace brother and hopefully your voice (and hands) again someday. Much Love
Hey brother! It's Cameron! Ya know, CatastrophicCam! Great to see this vid man cuz my buddy and I were just talking about Chi last night and I didn't know of his status. Man, Chi put so much heart in the band. They all did but you could just see it from Chi, ya know. Love him and I feel the same brother! Hard to see some of those pictures tho. Nice touch with the glassJAw Piano guitar man! That's one of my fave GJ songs! Keep it real!
Lord I just pray that you put a blanket of peace over him and his family and grant them strength that only you can give. Lord we audaciously ask you to heal Chi because nothing in impossible -amen
@marty0mart Maybe your mom and dad should have thought of using a condom before they had sex. Perhaps they wouldn't have given birth to a judgemental douche bag :)
Fuck, that aint right, why did this have to happen.. He honestly was better off pulling the plug.. poor man is just suffering now. imagine what he must be thinking right now? the pain? he can't even talk or anything. everyone has hope for him but I'm afraid he is just gone ):
This is so tough to watch. Loved Deftones for so many years now. I'm just happy if he survives at least. I thought he was dying for real. Let's just hope he recovers more and more
why would his family want him living this way? he's obviously a vegetable. I really hope he does pull through and fully.. but I wouldn't want my family member to be living that way.
I ask all of you to understand why I have posted this video: oneloveforchi is a wonderful community but unfortunately doesn't have the popularity it needs, that's why I'm showing the pictures of Chi on YouTube, in order to get some more audience and maybe make a bit of an efficient propaganda. It terribly saddens me to see Chi like that but it is what it is, real state of things must be at sight of the mass. Please spread this video as much as you can, facebook, YouTube, whatever way you can.
Man this looks sad. Why man. Why did this happen to him! He looks aweful and I'm afraid I saw this that it would take him years to get close to fully get well. Man this is sad. I hope him the best and maybe a miracle that he gets even better and fast
Seeing Chi in this state is so heartbreaking. Very sad to see him this way, but he is a fighter and will pull through. We love you Chi, stay strong and keep your head up!
damn. just about cried. we love you Chi. we all miss you and your music. your family, friends and fans are all still lucky to have you here. one love for Chi.
@ChinoZblexKlub7 Au courant qu'il va très mal et qu'il a besoin de dons. Plein de gens ne connaissent pas oneloveforchi, alors je fais une propagande comme je peux. Les photos sont toutes disponibles sur le site, c'est pas comme si je montrais au monde quelque chose de nouveau.
@MrVesanique je pensais qu'il allait un peu mieux, je me suis trompé, il a beaucoup maigri et je l'imagine très mal avec une basse dans les mains, je sais même pas si il se rappelle ce qu'est une basse
@ChinoZblexKlub7 Ca dépend... Les docteurs disent qu'il reconnaît certaines personnes et choses qu'il voit. Mais bien évidemment, on est loin d'une totale conscience.
I know this is probably a dumb question but if they play a Deftones song for him in his current state, will he recognize it?
