Ailing poor woman takes care of cerebral palsy son

A poor woman in the northern central province of Thanh Hoa who is struggling with various diseases has to still care for her son living with cerebral palsy.

Vu Thi Tam, 56, in Cong Liem Commune, Nong Cong District, is suffering from polyarthritis which causes her great pains every day. Meanwhile, she is at risk of being blind. 

   

Tan and her ailing son

Tam said that her son contracted cerebral palsy after a high fever. Over the past 18 years, he has lived a vegetable existence, putting the family burden on the mother.

When Tam was still in good health condition, she tried to do different kinds of jobs to earn money; but since she was sick, she has only stayed at home. Many neighbours sometimes give them food.

Due to the family’s financial difficulties, Tam did not go to hospital for medical check-ups. Until one day, she suddenly fainted and then was taken to hospital. Doctors said that she was in the critical stage of polyarthritis. 

  

Tam is also suffering from many diseases

The woman even thought of taking her son with her to commit suicide by jumping in a river due to depression. However, she tried to overcome this feeling to live.

She hopes her son could be sent to a care centre when she dies.
