Terminally-ill mother wishes to continue taking care of her daughter

A single mother in Ha Tinh Province is calling for financial support to help treat breast cancer.


  

Vo Thi Tinh and her daughter

Vo Thi Tinh said she felt a chest pain two months ago so she went to have a check-up and found out that she has breast cancer. Tinh's 9-year-old daughter, Hoai An, has lived in fear after knowing her mother's illness. She tried to stay close to her mother as much as possible.

"She cried and kept telling me not to die. She has suffered a lot since birth," Tinh said. "Sometimes she had to eat alone because I was in pain and couldn't eat and her grandmother was too weak."

Tinh has to travel to Hue Central Hospital for treatment once every two weeks. According to the doctors, the tumour has spread to her lungs so Tinh needs chemotherapy. If the tumour stops growing, she will undergo surgery to remove the tumour. However, the cost of travelling, accommodation and hospital fees for each trip is too much.

 

Sometimes Hoai An has to eat alone

Tinh can't do hard work because of cerebral circulation disorders. She has to ask relatives and neighbours to help take care of the fields and borrowed VND80m (USD3,400) to go to the hospital but the money quickly ran out. Tinh said she would continue trying to survive for her daughter. Her only wish is to be able to look after her daughter as long as she can.

An is a hard-working student at school. She is also Tinh's only hope.

Le Dang Loi, chairman of Huong Binh Commune, said, "They are one of the difficult cases. Tinh is the pillar of the family yet she has been struck by cancer and her daughter is still too small. They don't have a house, they are having to live with Tinh's brother family. Tinh's mother is over 80 years old and disabled."

He went on to say that the relatives and neighbours helped build a small house for Tinh years ago but it has deteriorated very badly.

"I hope they will get help from the community," Loi said.
