In the final stages of her pregnancy, the director has experienced health complications, including cholestasis, which has caused an itchy rash. Despite multiple doctor visits, her condition has not improved. She is also at risk of gestational diabetes and must limit her intake of high-glycemic carbohydrates and follow a low-sodium diet. She monitors her blood sugar regularly before and after meals to avoid complications.
She is grateful for her husband's support throughout her pregnancy. He helps her maintain a liver-detoxifying diet and prepares meals with minimal seasoning. Huy Tran cooks her favorite southern Vietnamese dishes, along with a variety of European and Asian cuisine.
