Deftones Bassist Remains In Coma

Posted by Michael on December 11, 2008

The Deftones provided an update on the status of bassist Chi Cheng who was injured in an auto accident last month. Here is what the band shared:

Chi remains in a coma, and as of this morning there's been no significant change in his condition. Last week he was moved out of the Intensive Care Unit and transferred to a brain rehabilitation hospital in Northern California. The hospital specializes in the care and management of traumatic and non-trauma related brain injuries with a team of highly skilled therapists, nurses and consultants. He's in great hands. Please continue to pray for our brother, and thank you all for your love and support.
