CEO of "Angel Heart Family Social Welfare Foundation" Lin Zhao Cheng found out afterwards, she wrote an open letter thanking him: "Jay said he has spondylitis ankylosans, it sometimes hurts, when it hurts it hurt really bad, no one can replace it, he's tried both Chinese and Western medicine, but his situation is sometimes good sometimes bad, so he can really relate to the helplessness of these angels, and he can really feel the greatness of parents."
