As the joyful atmosphere of spring fills the streets, many patients still have to remain in hospital and do not know whether they will be able to return home to celebrate Tet. Understanding those feelings, many hospitals have organised vibrant and heartfelt Tet activities to help ease, to some extent, the pain and worries caused by illness.

In the days leading up to the Lunar New Year (Tet), as many families busily prepare for reunions, at major hospitals, a significant number of seriously ill patients still have to stay for treatment.
