VietNamNet Bridge – Cho Ray Hospital will cure two young women who suffer from strange diseases, said the hospital’s director Nguyen Truong Son.
The two patients are Thach Thi Sa Ly whose whole body is covered by carbuncles and Kieu Thi My Dung whose half of face and body are covered by big tumors.

Sa Ly, 35, from the southern province of Soc Trang is distorted from head to toe by thousands of carbuncles. Many pimples are as big as lemons or oranges. The woman cannot see clearly because pimples have covered her eyes. She is always in pain and could not walk. Ly’s personal activities depend on her mother, Thach Sa Phai, 60.

The second woman, My Dung,22, comes from Da Lat city. Dung is the second child of a couple in Da Loc village, Xuan Tho commune. Dung’s mother said she was only 1.5kg at birth, with two eyes looked unequal. When Dung was three months old, her face was deformed. A small tumor appeared near her eyelid. The tumor is now very big, covering Dung’s face.
The girl’s body has dozens of tumors which are as big as corn kernels or fingertips. These tumors are growing. Whenever the weather changes or on sunny day, the girl always suffers from severe headache and she has to lie down on the bed.

Sa Ly is very poor so her disease has not been treated systematically. Her disease keeps developing worse but the reason has not been defined. The patient was hospitalized to Cho Ray hospital on December 24. My Dung will go to the hospital this week.

The two patients will be cured for free. On January 3, 2012, American Prof. McKinnon, who examined Nguyen Duy Hai – the man with 90kg tumor, and Cho Ray hospital’s doctors will make diagnosis for the two women.
