The American Anti-Slavery Group emails an update on Simon Deng's condition (previous: Anti-Slavery Activist Simon Deng Hospitalized):
Simon had surgery this morning to repair his lung. Simon is continuing to recover, though we still do not know how long he will remain in the hospital or when he will return to work.
We also learned this morning that the accident was not a hit-and-run as we originally believed; a police report was filed on the scene and the driver has taken responsibility for their actions.
Many of you expressed interest in helping Simon further by making a contribution. You may do so by clicking here or by making your check out to Simon Deng and mailing it to:

Once again, thank you for all the best wishes, thoughts and prayers. We will continue to forward emails, cards and contributions to Simon, so please feel free to respond to this email or send a card to our office.
