Meanwhile, Dr. Nitinart Sinthudecha Telan, or Dr. Pum, daughter of Associate Professor Sunee Sinthudecha, posted on her personal Facebook saying, "Dear respected family and friends, many who love my mother and me have called and contacted me because of what they saw on social media. Thank you very much. I would like to clarify that my mother is well. In the photo, a senior figure recently presented a commemorative medal for the birthday of King Rama X. She was smiling brightly and very happy. Mother is healthy, eating, sleeping, and smiling, but speaks less, probably because she has used up her quota."
