Two children face uncertain future as mother faces imminent death
  • | dtinews.vn | September 22, 2017 07:24 PM
Two small children in Dak Lak Province are in desperate need of financial support after their parents were hospitalised.

Tran Thi Phuong, 33, was diagnosed with epilepsy after having headaches, feeling dizzy and sometimes fainted four years ago. Recently, her condition got worse and she faints more often.

  

Tran Thi Phuong in hospital.


Last month, she was feeding her child in her hometown in Hue City while she had a seizure and hit her head onto a motorbike. Doctors at Hue General Hospital said she had a brain tumour and must be admitted to the hospital immediately.

Without money, the family went back to Dak Lak. Her husband then borrowed VND10m (USD440) in order to bring her to Cho Ray Hospital in HCM City.

  

Phuong's husband, Doan Ngoc Thuan, suffered from a broken spine.


Dr Nguyen Tuong Vu said Phuong must be operated to remove the tumour then get chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatment or else the tumour would grow and kill her in three to six months. But the treatment can only extend her life to two to three years.

Phuong's husband, Doan Ngoc Thuan, suffered from a broken spine, abdominal infection and half of his body is paralysed from a fall while taking care of his wife in hospital. Unfortunately, neither have health insurance.


  

Phuong and Thuan's sons.

Phuong has two sons and sold noodles for a living. Thuan does any jobs he can to support the family. Their relatives are poor and can't help them much.

Phuong's father-in-law used his house and the field as collateral for VND70m (USD3,000) loan but it is not enough. They also decided to not tell Phuong about her husband's injuries.
