The siblings have to take care of one another



The oldest sister is 16 years old and the youngest brother is only two years old. Their father had a stroke and died over a year ago. One month later, their mother was diagnosed with cancer and had to go to HCM City for treatment. Since then, they have to take care of one another and their daily meals have only rice or instant noodles with vegetables.

After their story was published, many people called to offer encouragement and gave them gifts.

A representative of Dantri Newspaper, Party Secretary of Ha Tinh Province Le Dinh Son, Party Secretary of Loc Ha District Truong Thanh Huyen and other officials also visited the siblings.


"Their most important tasks right now is studying and how the sister can take care of her brothers. Then they can have some time to visit their mother in HCM City. We'll do our best to support them," said Le Dinh Son.

 

VND712m donated to the children



VND712,130,000 was given to the siblings on the same day.

The children's grandmother Bui Thi Do said, "I want to thank kind people who helped us. I'm old and don't know how much longer I can live on but I'll teach them to be good citizens."

The eldest sister Phan Thi Thuong said this was like a dream. She said, "We don't have to worry about clothes and school supplies anymore. We'll work hard to repay such kindness."
