Celebrate Linh's life and support her little son!

Donation protected
Hi,

My name is Thuy Tien. A great friend of Linh ever since Kindergarten.

I created this GoFundMe to help Celebrate Linh's life and help her family pay for the memorial expenses, to support her little man who is only 2 years old to continue his life, and to relieve her family of their many financial burdens at this time.

Early morning May 20, 2019, I woke up early and ready to celebrate my birthday but to the deepest sadness, I got a message from VietNam that Linh had took her own life to relive herself from all the unbelievable pains physically, mentally and financially.

Linh had been diagnostic with Stage 4 breast cancer along with brain cancer. Because of family's hardship, she chose to keep it to herself and fight by herself. That has costed her and her family a lot of monies since there are no such thing as medical insurance in Vietnam.

Linh was a great teacher who had lived a great life. She was selflessly devoted the whole life for her family and her students.

Linh was the only provider for her Mom and her little man.

This is a message from 1 of her friend:

My friend, a girl who is strong and talented since she was a child. Our 2 families were the two poorest in this poor neighborhood. We had a lot of thing in common such as growing up in a single-mom family, same age, and going to the same school. Our houses are opposite from each other from a small country road.  Growing up in the care and support of the people in the village. Maybe the great above loved our situations, he made us two pretty smart and close with each other. Thus we're also pretty compete with each other. This healthy competition has led us to a good result, she became vice principal of our formal high school and I had moved away from home for my career but I was well paid for with great job and a happy family. You now had your little family of yourself. And yet, my friend, how can the difficulties of your life never stop?  It's time for you to enjoy the sweet fruit that you've grown and repay for your all your mom's scarifies but you have to go forever? so much sadness that I couldn't make it back in time to light you a farewell incense, rest in peace!

This is a message from 1 of her student:

You came down to my house with friends, gathered to cheer for me each time I go to a debate competition.
You had always comforted and cheer me  up whenever I lose confidence.
You always devotes your extremely important things to others
You who can forget yourself and give everything to your students
You don't care for benefits or money
You shows me how to well behaved.
You are one of many teachers who have the greatest heart in the world. You had influenced me and affected my life in many ways.
You took your students who can't afford to go to big city for college entrance exam and took care of everything for them.
You were very sensitive whenever your student was sad.
You treated all students the same without discrimination
You were a great  example for me to follow, live for simplicity and sincerity.
You always devoted to the teaching and learning of your students. 
You selflessly abandon your fame and opportunities for best of your family. 

YOU had lived a who life for others and now decided to give up life because of others.

Love and missed you!!!



Her Mom lost her only daughter and her son lost his Mom. the family lost the main provider who put food on their table.
