Orphan girl with cancer calls for help
An 11th grader in Can Tho City who is struggling from cancer is calling for financial support to cover hospital charges.
Thy's mother had to quit her jobs to collect scraps. However, Chi's health deteriorated quickly and she was hospitalised.
"This is the scariest moment of my life. I was also diagnosed with Peutz–Jeghers syndrome when my mother was in hospital. I wanted to drop out from school but my friends, teachers and my mother encouraged me to keep studying," Thy said.
In 2013, Thy underwent an operation to remove a liver tumour. Her mother borrowed from everywhere to admit Thy to HCM City's Oncology Hospital. Unfortunately, the tumour grew back and they had to return to HCM City. In 2016, Thy's was diagnosed with ovarian cancer while her mother was hospitalised for her tumour already spread to her brain.
When Thy's mother died in last March, her health worsened, forcing her to take a leave from school. Thy has had 10 chemotherapy sessions and had her uterus removed. "When I knew I was in last stages of cancer, I told my doctors to just let me die and meet my mother," she said.
Tran Ngoc Diep, head of the Red Cross Organisation in An Hoa Ward, said, "Thy's aunt is also very old and lives alone. The Red Cross Organisation and local authorities tried to help her but it was not enough."
