Thủ Đức
Kim was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in June. The oncology team at Thủ Đức Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in August. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Kim is 43, worked as a shop owner until June, 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 Thủ Đức Regional Medical Center 5 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 $350 goes: • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $110 • Transport to Thủ Đức Regional Medical Center: $125 • Scans and lab work: $115 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Huyền
