Female worker desperate because of illness
On May 19, Hoang Anh Gia Lai University Medical Center Hospital said that it had donated 26.1 million VND donated by the hospital's staff and some philanthropists to support patient U Sotphorn (born in 1995, Cambodian nationality), who is being treated at the General Surgery Department.
According to doctors, the patient was diagnosed with total peritonitis due to perforated hollow organs, accompanied by septic shock.
This is a critical condition, directly threatening life. In the first surgery, the patient fell into a state of septic shock, multiple organ failure and ulcerative necrosis of the small intestine.
After that, the patient continued to undergo another surgery due to severe infection, digestive leakage and complex abdominal abscess.
Not only fighting against dangerous diseases, the patient's family circumstances are also extremely difficult. The couple works as rubber workers with meager incomes, having to raise three young children in deprived conditions, life is difficult, making the children not have enough conditions to study.
According to the patient's family, the prolonged treatment costs have almost exhausted the family, and they once intended to ask to take the patient home because they no longer had the ability to manage.
However, doctors said that if treatment is stopped at this time, the risk of life-threatening is very high.
Adding motivation for patients to live
Faced with that particularly difficult situation, the Board of Directors and the collective of hospital officials and employees launched a donation campaign to share part of the cost burden and add hope of survival for patients.
Not only is it material support, but it is also a great source of spiritual encouragement, helping patients and their families have more faith to continue their treatment journey.
Currently, after a period of intensive treatment, the patient's health has shown many positive signs.
The patient is awake, his face is rosy, and he can sit up and walk gently. Although he still needs to continue treatment for a long time, these positive changes are a great hope for the family and the team of doctors and nurses who are accompanying the patient.
