She bleeds all over her body, which is covered with lesions, keeping her in constant pain. Some of the lesions have grown to the size of a bowl, and she has lost her hair because of the treatment.


The mother has been trying to find ways to save her daughter with the stedfast belief that she will live. She has taken her to many hospitals, but, to date, the situation has become worse.

Doctor Nguyen Thuy Duong, from the National Hospital of National Institute of Hematology and Blood Transfusion, said that Yen has been undergoing treatment for more than a year at the hospital. However, the treatment is of little help because the cancer is so far advanced. Now, doctors are only trying to lengthen her life.


The mother is now in a hopeless state and she does not know where to turn to find help in saving her daughter. She also has two other children at home.
