A blind woman in the northern province of Bac Giang is calling for help as she faces kidney failure, but her family are too poor to cover the treatment.
A blind woman in the northern province of Bac Giang is calling for help as she faces kidney failure, but her family are too poor to cover the treatment.
Trieu Thi Yen, 46, from Yen Dung District has been suffering from kidney failure for 14 years. She has to come to Bac Giang General Hospital for dialysis three times a week.
Yen and her son
Yen said that she was blind since birth. In 2005, she started working for a massage facility for the blind in Hai Duong Province. Then, three years later, she gave birth to her son Trieu Van Hung.
When her son was three years old, she faced tiredness and oedema. She also lost breast milk. She was diagnosed with the final stages of kidney failure. She was totally shocked.
Due to financial difficulties, she could not afford to buy powdered milk for her child. Instead, she had to use dilute soup to feed him.
Nguyen Tien Manh, vice chairman of Dong Phuc Commune People’s Committee, said that Yen’s family was among the poorest in the locality. Local residents have supported her, but this has remained modest.
Yen’s son is now in Grade 8, but he faces a very gloomy future, Manh said, adding that he hoped that donors could assist them.
