I remember back then a lot of people texted me through my Facebook page asking me to take pictures. Sometimes I look through all the messages on Facebook and that day, I see a very long message from a little girl named Ngoc Anh. And the experience with Ngoc makes me more confident that I was born with the mission of capturing the moments and meaning of life.
“Ngoc Anh was born and raised in Quang Tri, is a beautiful girl with a sunny smile, she won the first prize in the Hoa Khoi contest at school at the age of 14. The year she won the Hoa Khoi Prize, was also the year she discovered she had leg cancer, and she had to undergo treatment and then amputated her leg. And when the leg was cut off, the first thing she told the doctor was, "Why didn't you cut it earlier so that the pain will be lessened." And after Ngoc Anh had her leg amputated, she got a prosthesis and returned to school to play with her friends.
Ngoc Anh was happy for 2 years, she found out that cancer had spread to her lungs and she would not live long with that disease.
While there are many people who can be economically viable, when they text me, they have no intention of paying the fee for taking pictures, but Ngoc Anh - a girl who is still in school and has a serious illness again offer to pay the fee and ask me to come and capture the last moments of her life. I was really touched, admired and respected the little girl's gesture. And in me there is a really grateful feeling because I was given her trust to capture the last moments of her life. After that, I arranged to fly in to capture the last moments of Ngoc Anh's life.
I still remember that day in Quang Tri, the weather was very nice, and I saw Ngoc Anh in the flesh. Although she has no hair left, Ngoc Anh is still very beautiful. Ngoc Anh's smile radiated, a smile with positive energy despite the death coming knocking on the door. I had a day with Ngoc Anh, and also took her to the sea, and that day was the most meaningful day of my life, for me to realize that I was born with the mission of capturing beautiful moments to spread. the value and positive energy of the women regardless of in the difficult times and in the moments near to death.
