Fully aware of Tin’s condition, Truc decided to support him. In mid‑2020 she resigned from her office job and moved to Ho Chi Minh City, where she spent the first three months learning how to turn his body, manage his hygiene, prepare meals and assist with his physical therapy.

The constant lifting caused Truc frequent back pain, so she started practicing yoga to protect her health. The practice led her to become a certified yoga instructor, opening a new professional path.

Despite strong opposition from both families, Truc and Tin married in 2023. The wedding helped them organise a more stable daily routine, allowing Truc to balance caregiving with her yoga classes.

Today Tin sells products online and writes books, while Truc teaches yoga. Their flexible schedules generate income and give Truc the freedom to stay by Tin’s side.

Looking back on six years together, Truc says she feels happy and has never regretted her choice. She believes love, resilience and self‑care made it possible to turn a demanding role into a fulfilling life.
