Sun of Hope Foundation: Contributing Over 6.6 Billion VND for Pediatric Care
A total of 196 child patients at hospitals across the country have received financial support ranging from 30 to 100 million VND for treatment in the first six months of 2023.
An amount of 6.6 billion VND has been provided for two organ transplant cases, 12 stem cell transplant cases, and 182 cases undergoing chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgery, etc., at various hospitals including the Central Pediatric Hospital, K Hospital, Xanh Pon General Hospital, Dien Bien General Hospital, Hue Central Hospital, Danang Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital, Children’s Hospital 2, Oncology Hospital, and Ho Chi Minh City Hematology and Blood Transfusion Hospital.
9-year-old Luu Xuan Giang from Hai Phong is one of the difficult cases supported by the program. She was diagnosed with bone cancer earlier this year. She had to undergo two surgeries and 52 weeks of chemotherapy.
The family faced difficulties as her parents were imprisoned for working illegally abroad and could not return to the country. From the age of 2 until now, Giang has been living with her grandmother and relatives. When she fell ill, all the medical expenses were covered by contributions from both family members, inside and outside the family.
After more than four months of treatment, the total amount has exceeded 100 million VND, with most of it borrowed. Recently, Giang’s family had to apply for financial support for her treatment. “”Perhaps because she has been away from her parents since she was young, she doesn’t talk much and just cries when asked anything. I am old and don’t have the money for her medical treatment; I can only accompany her to the hospital,”” shared Giang’s grandmother, Nguyen Thi Duoc, 76 years old.
