Eight-year old boy with facial deformity
  • By Pham Oanh | dtinews.vn | January 21, 2014 07:24 AM

An eight-year old boy from the northern province of Thai Nguyen was born with a facial deformity.

 

The boy Ngo Thanh Tu

The boy Ngo Thanh Tu, who is blind also, now lives with his farther in a small house near a forest 20km far from Thai Nguyen City.

Ta Van Tra, a neighbour, said the boy stays in bed alone most days so that his farther Ngo Van Thai can work in construction. His relatives and neighbours come around to feed him every day and then he is left alone until his farther comes back. Tu and his farther have been living together over the past three years, since the parents split.

Thai said some people from the pagoda donated 10kg of rice and VND100,000 (USD4.76) for Tet. He said to his son that, he would try to earn money for Tet to buy him a set of clothes, which made Tu happy.

 

Tu and his farther

A relative of Mr. Thai said his family's situation has been very difficult, but Thai loves his son very much.

According to Thai, he took his son to hospitals for treatment, but doctors were unable to help. Now he hopes there has been a medical advancement that could be of use, but he cannot afford to take his son in.

Now the farther tries to earn money to support the family, but he cannot do any more to make the son’s face better.
