ADDITIONAL INFO: A Facebook post published on March 2, 2017 tells the whole story about her:
"Last night was really difficult for Jhoanna, she underwent several tests at the Makati Medical Center and later diagnosed with Endometrial and Ovarian Cancer, doctors believed that it already metastasized to her brain and kidneys, she is frail and weak suffering the complications of chronic diabetes, her sugar was elevated, her creatine is real high and she is complaining of pain all over her body, doctors recommended treatment at the ICU, she needs to undergo surgery and hemodialysis and correct her metabolic acidosis, unfortunately due to limited resources of her family and lack of funds and financial support, with a heavy heart the family was forced to bring her back home and go against medical advice. God knows that we are eager to exhaust all means possible to sustain all the expenses. This whole battle has been a challenge for us, it was an awkward and painful situation seeing a patient in a critical condition being discharged to a facility which could have helped her and attend to her medical needs. We went home devastated, jhoanna in so much agony, I know it is never too late that we can do something for her, at least lessen her pain and give her comfort until she can recover or be free from all of these. To everyone she have helped, who was touched by her kindness, to those she loved and cared for, to those people who would like to give jhoanna another chance of surviving this battle, let us all help her. Anna still wants to live, we all wanted her to survive this obstacle and I want the medical procedure to succeed to make this happen. She deserves this opportunity very much.
With this, I am knocking at your generous heart,whatever amount you can spare.
I understand that this will entail a sacrifice on your end but I pray that through your generosity, you can help JHOANNA to be free from pain and making her life longer.
May God bless you a thousandfold!"
