Hà's prostate cancer treatment fund
Supporting Hà through prostate cancer: medication, transport to the Hồ Chí Minh City Oncology Institute, and living costs while She can't work.
🇻🇳 Hồ Chí Minh City, Hồ Chí Minh City, Vietnam1,838 views
Hà was diagnosed with prostate cancer in August. The oncology team at the Hồ Chí Minh City Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks.
Hà is 42, worked as a hairdresser until August, 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 the Hồ Chí Minh City 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 her shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $550 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $160
• Household costs while unable to work: $200
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $55
• Transport to the Hồ Chí Minh City Oncology Institute: $135
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Hà.
So sorry you're going through this, Tâm. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Wishing you the best, Tâm. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
