Việt's thyroid cancer treatment fund

12 rounds of treatment are planned at the Thủ Đức Oncology Institute; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.

Thủ Đức
Việt was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in May. The oncology team at the Thủ Đức Oncology Institute has planned 12 rounds of treatment, starting in July. He will be away from work for about 7 weeks. Việt is 24, worked as a bank teller until May, 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 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 his 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: $1,100 • Scans and lab work: $125 • Transport to the Thủ Đức Oncology Institute: $185 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $110 • Household costs while unable to work: $230 Thanks for reading all this. - Hà

        is there anything that isn't money that would help Việt?

        • Carolina Larissa Ribeiro

          Sending strength, Hà. I hope things turn around soon. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

              Sending strength, Hà. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
