Young woman struggling with bone cancer in dire need of help
  • | dtinews.vn | October 27, 2023 09:05 PM
An 18-year-old woman in the central province of Nghe An is in desperate need of support as she struggles with bone cancer.

Le Thi Hong Hanh from Hoang Mai Town’s Quynh Thien Ward has been living with bone cancer for three years. By late 2021 when she was in Grade 10, she suffered from pains in her right leg. She was taken to some local medical facilities where she was diagnosed with sciatica. She was told to take medicines to use.

However, her condition continued getting worse, causing her right leg to be swollen. She was taken to Nghe An Tumour Hospital for medical check-ups where doctors said that she had been affected by bone cancer.

 

Hanh is facing bone cancer


She underwent surgery which cost VND400 million (USD16,326) with part of the sum funded by the hospital. Hanh’s family had to borrow money from different sources to cover the costs.

After the operation, she continued to receive chemotherapy. Her medical condition improved as she responded well to the treatment regimen, but a short time later, Hanh's platelet, white blood cell, and red blood cell counts dropped to alarming levels. She had to stay bedridden for three months, undergoing continuous platelet and white blood cell transfusions for two months.

The injury in her right left has worsened.

Nguyen Ba Hien, vice chairman of Quynh Thien Commune, said that Hanh’s family is very poor. Local residents have provided support but this remained modest. He called on donors to jointly assist her family.

Doctors said that Hanh needs to have her right leg removed to prevent necrosis, but the surgery is quite costly. Her family is totally powerless because they do not know how to have money to cover the treatment.
