I am Htun Linn, and I have known Ko Kaung for approximately 20 years. He is one of the most kind and generous individuals I have ever met. Tragically, he has recently been diagnosed with cancer, which is called Cholangiocarcinoma also known as bile duct cancer, a life-threatening condition that has left everyone who knows him in shock.

Currently, Ko Kaung is battling for his life at Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center.

Approximately one week prior to this diagnosis, we were engaged in a conversation about planning to assist a friend who is getting married. Ko Kaung has always been a pillar of support for his community, volunteering his time and resources for various events, including community gatherings and Burmese religious ceremonies, throughout Florida. Despite his successful life as a single man, he remains a beloved figure in our community.

To combat this cancer, Ko Kaung requires unwavering mental and physical strength. His support from us is more crucial than ever.

Regrettably, hospital bills, medication expenses, and other financial obligations have accumulated due to his inability to work. As we are aware, hospital bills can be overwhelming regardless of insurance coverage.

I am reaching out to our esteemed friends to express our concern and offer our support. Regardless of the amount you can contribute, any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Your contributions will be directly go to Ko Kaung’s niece, Roweena, who is currently providing care for him.

Please extend your support to Ko Kaung in his battle against cancer.
