Terminally-ill mother calls for help for son
A woman who is facing breast cancer is calling for financial support to help cover medical treatment for her 23-year-old son who was seriously injured in a traffic accident.
Ty is a retired primary school teacher. Her small income can hardly support daily meals for the family. After graduating high school, her eldest son, Ho Viet Huynh, borrowed money from the bank to work as a contracted driver.
"On the first day of Tet Holiday, he still worked because he wanted to earn as much as possible for my treatment. Perhaps he was too tired, he had an accident," Ty said. "When I got to the hospital, I saw that his left arm was almost severed. We still owe the bank over VND200m."
Nguyen Ngoc Canh from Central Acupuncture Hospital said Huynh had traumatic brain injuries and paralysed from the waist down. His left arm has been cut off. After two months, he regained consciousness and can talk again.
"He needs long-term and expensive treatment because of many medicines that are not covered by health insurance. Her mother still needs to pay travel costs and meals. His condition is getting better now but his family has run out of money. It's such a shame," he said.
Seeing his mother struggling with the pain to take care of him, Huynh keeps saying that he is already better and can go home.
Truong To Quyen, vice head of the hospital's social work office, said, "There was time Ty was exhausted and fainted in Huynh's room. We are all worried about them and hope that they will get help."

Ho Viet Huynh
Phan Thi Ty was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012. At first, she followed the treatment so her condition improved. But after her husband died suddenly and left behind two children in 2016, she can't go to the therapy sessions as often as before due to financial problems. The tumour has spread to her bones now and causes her much pain.Ty is a retired primary school teacher. Her small income can hardly support daily meals for the family. After graduating high school, her eldest son, Ho Viet Huynh, borrowed money from the bank to work as a contracted driver.
"On the first day of Tet Holiday, he still worked because he wanted to earn as much as possible for my treatment. Perhaps he was too tired, he had an accident," Ty said. "When I got to the hospital, I saw that his left arm was almost severed. We still owe the bank over VND200m."
