Doctor Nguyen Dinh Khue - Director of the Provincial Hematology and Blood Transfusion Center said that the center is treating over 100 patients, including patients who often have to undergo long-term treatment, whose lives are closely tied to infusions, so most of them have missed their studies.

From the burning desire of many sick children and students, the Center coordinated with local teachers and a volunteer group to open a class called "Wings of Dreams", teaching children right at the department every evening. Photo: Thanh Cuong

Each lesson lasts for 2 hours, making the shy children happy. Coming to class, the children can interact and chat with the teacher, learn to sing, color or learn to write... depending on the interests and abilities of each child. Photo: Thanh Cuong

The classroom is fully equipped with desks, chairs, learning materials, books, speakers, etc., supported by doctors at the Center and benefactors. Photo: Thanh Cuong

"Perhaps the most disadvantaged thing for the children is not being able to go to school or class. We want to help the children always feel comfortable, which will improve the effectiveness of the treatment process" - Dr. Pham Quoc Hoi - Department of General Hematology 2 shared.

The class not only provides students with knowledge but also helps them become more optimistic and confident in themselves to overcome their illness… Photo: Thanh Cuong
