Helpless woman in need of support to fight two cancers

A woman in Phu Tho Province is calling for financial support to help treat breast cancer and thyroid cancer.

  

60-year-old La Thi Du

Dr Nguyen Minh Tuan from Phu Tho General Hospital said 60-year-old La Thi Du often went to the hospital alone. Du was diagnosed with breast cancer and was in the sixth year of treatment when she was also diagnosed with thyroid cancer.

Due to the size of the tumour, Du had gone under an emergency operation on January 6. Doctors advised her to go to the central-level hospital but Du's situation is too difficult.

Du said her family was very poor with many children so she had to work at an early age. Her parents already died and she is now living alone, depending on the rice fields and odd work to support herself.

After finding out that she had breast cancer six years ago, her money had long since run out. She still tried to work but after four years, half of her body swelled up and her health weakened so bad that she can only live on the monthly allowance for the poor. She can also only go to the hospital when she is able to borrow enough money.

"When I knew that I had another cancer, really, I didn't want to continue the treatment. I felt like I had lived enough alone. But then I thought about the encouragement and VND30m (USD1,300) bank loans and VND50m debts to many people. I can't die when I can't repay everyone yet," she said.
