Three children among four offspring of Nguyen Thi Tham (60 years old, Vinh Luong Commune, Nha Trang City) are Agent Orange victims, namely Do Thanh Hieu (born in 1993), Do Thanh Vy (born in 1994). One of the three died. Do Thi Thanh (born in 1992), Tham's only healthy child, is now working in a nursery school in Vinh Luong Commune.

Tham’s whole family lives in a small degraded house. Reportedly, Tham’s husband was exposed to Agent Orange. He left home nearly 20 years ago because he felt so wretched seeing his children being born with disabilities linked to his exposure to Agent Orange. Tham has made strenuous efforts to raise her children alone since then. She has played the role of mother, father and teacher.

Hopefully, the readers and sponsors everywhere will help Tham’s family to cope with difficulties. All the supports can be sent to Tham’s family or the charity box of Khanh Hoa Newspaper office at 77 Yersin St., Nha Trang City.
