TITLE:
DESCRIPTION: Like most countries, mental illness is something that people want to forget about. Vietnam is no different. Families sent their loved ones to mental illness hospitals and often leave them there for the rest of their lives. The hospitals are ran by the government but the doctors are left to deal with the finances and care for the patients on their own. Mental illness patients roam the court yard at a hospital in My Tho, Vietnam, about 100 kilometers south of Ho Chi Minh City.
