Standing with Tuyết: prostate cancer treatment costs
Tuyết is facing prostate cancer and the cost of treatment, travel and care at home is far beyond what the family can cover.

Tuyết was diagnosed with prostate cancer in February. The oncology team at Nha Trang Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, starting in April. She will be away from work for about 7 weeks.
Tuyết is 56, worked as a farmer until February, 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 Nha Trang Regional Medical Center 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.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $1,750 goes:
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,150
• Scans and lab work: $105
• Transport to Nha Trang Regional Medical Center: $100
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $85
• Household costs while unable to work: $310
Glad we found this place.
