A Kidney for Love

Manila Bulletin

|

July 28 2025

Behind every illness is a story of hope. This is the journey of Jan Francis and Tana Mendoza-Juan from Malolos, Bulacan. A couple bound not only by love but by a life-changing health challenge.

Tana, 36, was diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) 5 and had to undergo regular hemodialysis. “Mabigat na gastusin ang pagpapagamot at treatment,” she shared. “Kung hindi ako magtratrabaho hindi ako makakapagpa-dialysis.”

But love has a way of showing up in the most unexpected forms. Jan Francis stood by her. “Bilang partner ayaw mo siyang makita na nahihirapan. Gagawin mo lahat para sa minamahal mo," he said. As her boyfriend then, he decided to become her kidney donor, and luckily, he was her perfect match. “Pinakasalan ko siya para hindi makatanggi ang magulang ko.”
