Fighting acute lymphoblastic leukemia: help Hùng afford treatment in Hồ Chí Minh City

Hùng is facing acute lymphoblastic leukemia and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Hồ Chí Minh City
In July I was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. My oncology team at the Hồ Chí Minh City Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in September. I was told to expect about 10 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 32, I worked as a hairdresser until July, and I have been the main earner for my household. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to the Hồ Chí Minh City Oncology Institute 3 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly. My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $2,000 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,400 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $50 • Household costs while unable to work: $310 • Scans and lab work: $240 Thank you for reading my story. - Hùng
