They’ve got 8 children, and some of their grandchildren has graduated from college. It supposed to be a good time to enjoy their life, but a sudden bad news destroyed it.

PHUA THIN KUI has been suffered from cough, expectoration and dyspnea since 2015, for about 10 months. He went to hospital and took medicine, but the medicine did not improved his condition. He then took a systemic examination whose results showed that there was a lump (10*6cm) in his lung. In other words, PHUA THIN KUI got lung cancer. PHUA THIN KUI was so scared that thought he can no longer live. “In Indonesia, people usually take cancer as a terminal disease, having cancer means death.” His wife explained. Doctors there suggested PHUA THIN KUI to take operation, considering the suffering of traditional cancer treatment, PHUA THIN KUI refused. One week later, one of PHUA THIN KUI’s daughter-in-law, who works in hospital, found St. Stamford Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou (MCHG) on the internet. She told PHUA THIN KUI:“ Dad, go to St. Stamford Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou for treatment, I did a research and found out it is a really good cancer hospital.” Therefore, PHUA THIN KUI and his families decided to go to the Jakarta Office of St. Stamford MCHG for more treatment information.
