http://sc.plu.cn/note/2011-08-13/32658.html

Fomos contents, so only translating parts of it.

- 听说你要接受手术
▶ 其实新闻报道有些地方不对,我如果不接受手术的话就没法治了,所以一定要接受手术。本来之前就应该手术的,但因为很多原因推迟了,而我对自己的竞技力也很有信心。但是情况恶化了,当我说“已经对竞技力有影响了”医生就马上要我手术,说是一直在等我说这个。如果手术成功的话就可以健康地打星际了。那样的话我肯定会比现在打得更好。给我做手术的人非常有名,很有希望。

You are going to have surgery
The recent media reports on my wrist situation were not very accurate. If I do not have surgery, my hand will never be cured, so surgery is the only option. I was suppose to have the surgery earlier, but many things has happened and the date keeps getting pushed back, also because I was still confident in my skills. But things have gotten worst. When I told my doctor "it's affecting my skill level" the doctor immediately suggested that I should have surgery, he said he was waiting for me to say that(T/N: ??? Doctor seem to worry about Flash's skill level?). If the surgery is successful, I will be able to play BW with 100% power*. The doctor is highly regarded in this field, the chances are high.

*he said in another part of the interview that he is current running on 70-80% power due to wrist.

- 跟fans说一句
▶医生说手术可能成功也可能失败,无论什么手术,患者的意志都是最重要的。现在去接受了手术,之后我就可以快点回来打星际。fans请不要太担心,请相信我。我觉得能成功。

Anything to say to the fans?
Doctor said my surgery can be successful, but it can also fail. No matter what the surgery is, the mental strength of the patient is the most important. I want to play bw again asap, fans don't worry too much. Trust me. I believe everything will be ok.

Flash also revealed that he was in his BEST shape for over a year during the Shanghai 2011 Final.

He also said that he has greatly improved his TvP match up. (This is his worst match up with only 70% win rate ^.^)

As long as he keeps his apm up with his left hand, during recovery a smooth transition wont be bad . He's just gonna have to practice hard with his right hand when he gets back

Four months is probably enough time to learn how to play one handed, just have to modify something like this

I consider this good news, such surgeries tend to have very good results - with full recovery in most cases. It depends on the case, but I'm sure Flash's team has secured for him the best medical testing, to conclude that it's the right approach. Hopefully he will be back before long in full power.
