Love Story of a Blind Couple

Posted by: Tran Hong Chi

THE WEDDING PARTY

A wedding party was held on July 2, 2006 in Mai Loc village, Cam Chinh commune, Cam Lo district, Quang Tri province. The wedding was so special, for the bride and groom were both blind. Nearly half of the wedding attendees were also blind people, who are members of the provincial and district Blind Associations.

Huyen, the bride and Thien, the groom both experienced severe accidents when they were only several years of age. The devices that they were playing with suddenly exploded, and the tiny fragments from the blast took away their eyesight ever since.

After so many years struggling on their own, they have finally found each other and the wedding came as a happy ending.

Please stay with us for the next several chapters of their Love story. We will try our best to share with you all what we know about them. Our next chapter will be “The Bride’s story”

This story brings tears to my eyes and I showed the picture to my wife who also has tears in her eyes. What an image of hope along a difficult journey for each of these UXO survivors. Thank you for alerting us to it. I hope we can visit the newly weds when we are there in August. How did CPI help them through the ASAP program or is that still to come?
