Story
Hieu, 3 Y/O, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital
Hieu is a gentle 3 Y/O boy who has the warmth of a Teddy Bear that captures the heart of anyone he meets.
Hieu was diagnosed in May of 2014 with Leukemia before his 3rd birthday. He was taken to the ER for a sore throat, fever and bloody nose and his mother was shocked when she was told he had cancer. Hieu then began a 3 year chemotherapy program that has required many hospitalizations. Hieu’s mother has been unable to work since last year due to Hieu’s medical treatment requirements. This has caused a financial crisis in providing basic needs for her family of 6.
Needs
Hieu and his family need immediate help to pay for food, gas and other basic needs.
