It is known that for nearly 7 years now, Mr. Son has had to “carry” a tumor weighing more than 40 kg in his left buttock and thigh. Currently, his total body weight is more than 90 kg.

Mr. Son shared: Domestic experts saidIf the tumor is surgically removed, the success rate is only 10 to 20%, so Son is currently waiting for the opportunity to have surgery from foreign experts. However, the cost is very high and the family's circumstances are difficult, so he really hopes for contributions and support from benefactors./.
