Young P.T.T.T (born in 2015) is currently under treatment and monitoring at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, University Medical Center Ho Chi Minh City. The child has been diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy caused by a TNNT2 gene mutation, severe heart failure, and secondary mitral regurgitation. Doctors have determined that a heart transplant is her single remaining hope for survival.

In November 2025, P.T.T.T was hospitalized in a state of acute decompensated heart failure. Following comprehensive medical evaluations and specialized testing, she was placed on the national heart transplant waiting list. Currently, she relies on daily medical management, regular check-ups, and a patient wait for a compatible donor heart.

Beyond her critical condition, P.T.T.T faces a heart-wrenching family situation. Two years ago, her father tragically passed away from lung cancer, leaving her mother—a nursing assistant earning a modest 10 to 12 million VND per month—to single-handedly support two children. Her older sister has even put her own education and dreams on hold to help their mother care for P.T.T.T.

The estimated cost for the heart transplant and post-operative care ranges from 1.5 to 1.6 billion VND. This monumental figure is entirely beyond the family’s reach, despite every effort to gather support from relatives and available resources.

Facing this immense crisis, the Social Work Department at University Medical Center Ho Chi Minh City has partnered with the Loving Touch Foundation to mobilize support for P.T.T.T. Community support will grant her the vital opportunity to undergo this heart transplant and continue her journey toward full recovery.

Medical experts affirm that with a successful transplant and proper post-operative care, P.T.T.T has a highly encouraging prognosis—offering her the chance to return to school and live a vibrant, healthy life. Every act of kindness today is a precious catalyst, bringing this brave young soul closer to a strong heart and a second chance at her childhood dreams.
