We really need to share the difficult situation of the family of the Deputy Secretary of Do Luong District Youth Union.

A dedicated and enthusiastic Youth Union leader

True to the title "Youth living beautifully" that the Central Committee of the Vietnam Youth Union has honored and awarded, Nguyen Tat Hung - Deputy Secretary of the District Youth Union, Vice Chairman of the Do Luong District Youth Union has made many people admire his way of life and the process of leading the Youth Union - Association movements in the locality.

Starting his volunteer journey when he was a student of Social Work at Quy Nhon University, he and his friends regularly organized fundraising sales to help those in particularly difficult circumstances. That journey continued to be nurtured and maintained effectively after Hung graduated and worked at Do Luong District Youth Union since 2016. The nature of his work has helped him approach many difficult circumstances in the locality and from there, his sympathy and understanding for those lives has deepened.

Therefore, in 2017, with the consent of the leaders of the District Party Committee, the District People's Committee and the District Youth Union, Nguyen Tat Hung established the "Do Luong - Sharing Love" Group to mobilize and call on individuals, groups and charitable businesses to support and help difficult circumstances in the area. After nearly 6 years of operation, the group has called for help for 563 difficult circumstances, with a value of more than 5.7 billion VND. From this meaningful source of support, many children, lonely elderly people or individuals with serious illnesses have had a support to rise up after adversity.

Along with that, during natural disasters and epidemics, Nguyen Tat Hung and Do Luong District Youth Union organized many activities to support people in consuming agricultural products, overcoming consequences and building infrastructure and cultural institutions, meeting the criteria for building new rural areas.

After those efforts, over the past 5 years, Nguyen Tat Hung has received many noble awards such as: Outstanding Face of the "National Volunteer" Award; Provincial-level Advanced Youth Following Uncle Ho's Teachings; the 6th National "Advanced Youth Following Uncle Ho's Teachings" and the title "Beautiful Youth" in 2021...

However, he is currently facing many difficulties and needs the help of the community and society.

Need timely sharing

Hung said his difficult days began in 2021 when he had a serious accident after offering incense at Truong Bon National Historical Site.

The accident left him with a spinal injury, a crushed shoulder, broken ribs and many large wounds all over his body. His family's already difficult circumstances became even more difficult when so much money had to be spent on medical treatment. At that time, the doctor had a bad prognosis for his life. But then, a miracle happened when Nguyen Tat Hung overcame the line between life and death, gradually recovering his health to continue living and working.

Some time after his health recovered, Nguyen Tat Hung got married and received the good news when his wife was pregnant with their first child at the end of 2022. However, the joy was short-lived when in March this year, his wife, Ms. Tran Thi Thuy (born 1997) - a teacher at Ly Nhat Quang Secondary School (Do Luong) discovered that she had kidney failure when the fetus was just 3 months old.

Being pregnant while the disease was in a critical stage made the health and life of both mother and child seem very fragile. However, with the intense love for their child, the couple fought bravely against the disease, with the hope of welcoming their child into the world together.

"It was a difficult time, seeing my wife getting weaker every day, my heart ached more and more. From a lively, healthy and enthusiastic woman at work, she could now only lie motionless in bed with physical exhaustion. The couple's life was tied to long trips for treatment at large and small hospitals. However, we never lost hope that our child would be safe," said Nguyen Tat Hung.

By last July, when the fetus was 7 months old, Tran Thi Thuy's health was very weak. To save the lives of mother and child, the doctor had to perform a cesarean section. After birth, the baby was forced to lie in an incubator under the medical care of doctors and nurses.

As for Ms. Tran Thi Thuy, after the surgery, her condition became more and more serious. Currently, she has to undergo dialysis 3 times a week to maintain her life. Meanwhile, Ms. Thuy's family situation is also very difficult, as her mother alone has to shoulder the burden of raising Thuy and her 3 sisters. To repay her mother's efforts, Thuy has worked hard in her studies to graduate from university with excellent degrees, and was accepted to teach at Ly Nhat Quang Secondary School under the attraction program.

During her time working at the school, Ms. Tran Thi Thuy won the Encouragement Prize in the 2022 National "Reading Culture Ambassador" Contest and was awarded many Certificates of Merit and Certificates of Merit by the Chairman of the Provincial and Do Luong District People's Committee for her outstanding achievements in her profession.

With her current condition, to help her prolong her life and continue to contribute to her work, the optimal solution given by doctors is a kidney transplant. However, the estimated cost for a kidney transplant is over 1.4 billion VND - far beyond the couple's ability to pay. Therefore, more than ever, Hung and Thuy's family needs the support of the community and society.
