Thủ Đức
Hoàng was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in August. The oncology team at the Thủ Đức Oncology Institute has planned 10 rounds of treatment, starting in November. He will be away from work for about 4 weeks. Hoàng is 58, worked as a nurse until August, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to the Thủ Đức Oncology Institute 3 times a week, and the income the family has lost add up quickly. We've already sold what we could and have begun borrowing for groceries. Every kindness from you takes weight off his shoulders. I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes. Where the $1,700 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $105 • Transport to the Thủ Đức Oncology Institute: $120 • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,475 If you're reading this, thank you. - Bích
