Hai Duong, May 30, 2004

My name is Nguyen Thanh Gian. I live in Hai Duong province. I joined the Liberation Army in 1968 and fought in Thua Thien-Hue. The jungle where I was fighting was sprayed with Agent Orange which killed all of the plants.

After the war, I came back home and my whole body began to turn red, itchy, and ulcerous. I have visited many dermatologists but I was told that there is no way to cure this affliction. I was affected by Agent Orange. It is getting worse.

The war has been over for almost 30 years. Is there any way to cure my disease?

Thank you.
