With the hope of helping to lessen the pain for Cuong during his last days in this world, HSCV invited a doctor from the Cancer hospital to visit his home and give him the best treatment. The doctor was very nice and showed the family how to take care of Cuong and then gave them some medicine to lessen the pain for free. This medicine helped Cuong sleep better and made him feel more comfortable. Some days later, with the help from the Abbott Milk company, HSCV traveled to Hai Duong to visit Cuong and gave him 22 cans of PediaSure BA

To pay for Cuong’s treatment the family had to sell their land. They are still in debt and owe a large amount of money. This debt is a burden for the family. Both parents are farmers and they go to work on other farms for hire, sometimes for very little money. However, for the last two years, they were not able to go to work for hire and had to spend a lot of money everyday because of Cuong’s condition. They have two daughters named Thuy and Chung. They are studying at schools and this also is a big challenge for the parents to pay school fees for these two children.
HSCV is designing programs to help families like Cuong’s to assist them overcome the hardship of debt. We will consider helping Thuy and Chung with a scholarship program for the coming school year. Both of them need to travel quite far to school and we also want to help them get to school by providing the both of them with bicycles. Doing this would help them not be late getting to school, and to return home early so they can help their parents with chores around the house.
In the sprit of teaching a man to fish so, he can eat for a lifetime we are considering donating some pigs, chickens and a cultivator. This would help them will have more income and provide food for them as well.
