Fighting stage 2 breast cancer: help Liên afford treatment in Da Nang
Liên is facing stage 2 breast cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.
🇻🇳 Da Nang, Da Nang, Vietnam1,685 views
Liên was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer in May. The oncology team at Da Nang University Hospital has planned 4 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 3 weeks.
Liên is 44, worked as a shop owner until May, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after her.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Da Nang University Hospital 4 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 her shoulders.
Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment.
Where the $1,550 goes:
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $65
• Transport to Da Nang University Hospital: $140
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,345
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
