63-year-old fisherman Lim Swee Hock from Tanjung Piandang, Perak, was diagnosed with lung cancer and it has spread to the brain. As his condition was not suitable for surgery and chemotherapy, the doctor suggested him to take precision medicine to shrink the tumor. He has sold his fishing boat to treat the cancer, and his family borrowed money to pay for his medication for two months.
Swee Hock’s condition has greatly improved since he started taking the oral medication in December last year. He was bedridden, unable to eat, cough and experienced shortness of breath in the beginning, but he can get out of bed and walk after taking the medicine for a week. He can also eat, take care of himself, speak, and think clearly. When he returned to the hospital for a follow-up visit early this year, the doctor was surprised by the improvement of his condition.

His children can only afford the medicine for two months, but their father needs to take the medicine every day, so they have no choice but to approach One Hope Charity for help.
Swee Hock was a fisherman. He worked hard to earn enough money to buy a fishing boat. Together with a few crew members, they fished in the ocean to earn a living. After the tsunami in 2004, the amount of catch reduced, and his earned about RM2,000 every month. After he fell ill, he was forced to sell his fishing boat for medical expenses.
