Little Tran Nguyen Gia Phat (born in 2022, residing in Cay Bang hamlet, Go Cong Dong commune, Dong Thap province) is currently undergoing treatment at the Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Intensive Care Unit of Cho Ray Hospital. He was diagnosed with a complex congenital heart defect, including Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA), Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD), Atrial Septal Defect (ASD), and left pulmonary artery stenosis—severe malformations that pose a grave threat to his health and survival.

His illness was first detected when he was a mere 7 days old. His family initially brought him to Nhi Dong 1 Hospital, but due to the complex nature of his condition, he was transferred to Cho Ray Hospital for specialized care. Ever since, little Gia Phat’s life has been an arduous, ongoing journey of hospital stays, continuous medical monitoring, and lengthy interventions.

Because of his complex cardiac structure, Gia Phat underwent his first open-heart surgery in September 2023. Now, doctors have determined that he urgently requires a second operation - a Fontan procedure combined with left pulmonary artery enlargement—to optimize his blood circulation and improve his future quality of life. This critical surgery represents a decisive turning point in his fight for survival.

Meanwhile, Gia Phat’s family is trapped in severe economic hardship. Both parents work as informal day laborers with erratic wages while struggling to raise three young children. Years of fighting alongside their son through endless hospitalizations have completely exhausted their modest savings, leaving their meager income barely enough for basic daily meals.

The hospital estimates the cost for this second surgery to be approximately 100 million VND. The desperate family managed to borrow enough to make a 20 million VND advance deposit, but they are utterly unable to raise the remaining balance. This overwhelming financial wall now stands directly between their little boy and his life-saving surgery.

Moved by his critical situation, the Loving Touch Foundation has stepped in to cover the remaining treatment expenses for Tran Nguyen Gia Phat. This timely aid not only lifts a crushing financial weight off his parents' shoulders but also breathes new hope into their hearts as he prepares for this pivotal procedure.

Every act of kindness can spark a meaningful transformation in the life of a critically ill child. With the united support of the Loving Touch Foundation and our compassionate community, we deeply hope that little Tran Nguyen Gia Phat will successfully navigate his surgery, recover his strength, and grow up toward a bright, healthy future.
