Nguyễn Phạm Tường Vy
Born in 2010
Hometown: Kien Giang

Vy was born with heart disease, a hereditary condition, needing regular checkups. Recently she was diagnosed with constricted blood arteries in chest and stomach, requiring coronary angioplasty to place stents to restore blood flow through the arteries. Her family lives in poverty.  Her father passed away in October 2017 at a very young age.

Vy’s widowed mother is still paying the medical bills for the deceased spouse.  Her income from all odd jobs of approximately 500,000 VND per week can barely cover living expenses and saving for trips to Saigon for Vy’s medical care.  Vy will need another checkup in three months. Vy needs help to cover follow-up medical examination and daily meals for three months.
