Feeling fatigue, Hanh took herself medicines for a cold, but her condition went up gradually. Then she saw doctors at provincial General Hospital and had a result of weak kidney disease. Hanh went to Can Tho for medicinal herbs. However, there was no remission and her body swelled up. Due to her serious condition, Hanh was taken to Cho Ray hospital at HCM City. Thanks to contributions of relatives, Hanh could do kidney dialysis and felt better in couple of days. Doctors recommended doing the kidney dialysis 3 times a week until the end of her life. But expenses were so high, thus she went to Quan Doan 4 hospital for treatment…Because of her illness, she had to sell everything in her house. Her brother Huynh Tan Thanh (born 1983), who is selling eggs at Phu Cuong ward for living, mortgaged his motorcycle to help sister. Chanh Nghia ward’s People’s Committee as well as neighbors visited, offered gifts and money to Hanh, but that was not enough. She has to do kidney dialysis 3 times a week with the expense of over VND200,000 each time, monthly medicine expense is VND2.5 mln and then lodging fee, expenses for her 11 year old and 5 year old son. Every day, Hanh with 2 sons on an obsolete bicycle sells lottery tickets from 9 AM. They return home at about 10AM because she is so tired. In the afternoon, they continue to travel around for more 50 tickets. Daily income is VND55,000. Her 11 year old son, Ha Quoc Khang, is in summer holidays, but has to drive his mother and little brother to sell tickets. He is a good pupil in 4 consecutive years. But now may be he has to cancel studying because of their poverty. Khang said: “I’m not sure that I can go back to school in next August. May be I have to quit school to help my mother to sell tickets…”Hanh said sadly: “I only wish that I could live until my youngest son was 10 years old so that he can take care of himself like his brother…”Donations from the public, benefactors are expectedly in order for Ms. Hanh could cure her illness and lengthen her life with 2 sons.
