Woman with distorted face seeks help
  • | dtinews.vn | December 01, 2022 09:24 AM
A poor woman in the northern province of Phu Tho is suffering in great pain as a tumour on her face continues to grow bigger.

Tho Thi Bich Hau, 42, from Thanh Ba District’s Khai Xuan Commune is now staying at Hanoi Medical University Hospital for treatment. Her condition has worsened.

The tumour is as big as a grapefruit, completely covering her left eye and part of her right eye.

 Hau's condition has worsened 

She has had the tumour since 2002 when she was pregnant with her second child. She did not use any medicines because of the pregnancy. In 2003 after giving birth, the tumour became bigger, but she did not go to hospital due to financial difficulties.

In 2019, the tumour started severely distorting her face, bringing great pain. Hau’s husband took loans from different sources to bring her to Hanoi for treatment. However, at that time her son, Ta Hong Thai who was born in 2003 began displaying similar symptoms to his mother’s disease. So, Hau delayed her treatment to prioritise her son’s surgery.

To date, the family has incurred debts of VND300 million following the son's treatment. Hau is in desperate need of urgent treatment, but she can’t afford it.

 

Hau's son has experienced three operations

Her son has experienced three operations, but he still needs more.

Currently, Hau has to use tranquillizers and painkillers to ease the pain.

Doctor Dang Trieu Hung from Hanoi Medical University Hospital said that the late treatment has worsened Hau’s condition, causing her face to be distorted. This is a rare case. She needs surgery which costs between VND200-250 million.
