Help cover funeral costs for 15 year old cancer patient
Donation protected
Hello everyone! My name is Nhi and I made this GoFundMe to help my cousin back in Vietnam be able to afford his cancer treatment.
Every teenager deserves to experience life and a bright future. My cousin Phi is fighting for his life and future. At the age of 15, he was diagnosed with BPDCN (Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm), which is a very aggressive hematologic cancer. He is very ill and most days he can't gather the strength to wake up, as he lays in pain with tubes and machines hooked up to him.
Because Phi is so sick, he couldn't attend school and had to be admitted to the hospital and has stayed there since the 13th of December 2024.
Phi’s father is a high school teacher with a low salary, and his mother works at the daily food market, barely making ends meet. Both of them are working so hard and endlessly, but the medical cost is very overwhelming and is slowly starting to stack up, which leaves his parents and family in a very desperate situation.
Right now Phi needs the money to be able to get his treatment for his aggressive cancer. Without the proper treatment, his life is at a greater risk. The clock is ticking and time is very crucial; his chances of survival will decrease without the proper care he needs. A young life that hasn’t fully experienced life to the fullest.
I live very far from my cousin. I live all the way in the US and I myself don’t have enough to help, so I decided to create this GoFundMe to help Phi get closer to getting the treatment that he desperately needs. I already lost my father in 2020 to lung cancer, so seeing that my cousin is going through the same thing and even younger breaks my heart.
Please help me raise the money for his treatment.
Anything helps. Any donations of any size are helpful, and even sharing his story with your friends, your family, and others will help so much! Your kindness today will make a difference between life and death for Phi.
Please keep Phi in your prayers to help give him the strength to overcome this evil illness.
The money that is raised in this fundraiser will be going into a bank account that I will be transferring to Western Union and sending back to Vietnam for Phi’s parents.
