Riza M. Padronzulan, 39, has faced an extraordinary medical journey. Diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome in 2017 after returning from Singapore, she has endured numerous health complications, multiple hospitalizations, and nearly a decade of monthly blood transfusions.
Through every trial, Riza has remained steadfast in her faith. She credits God's sustaining grace, the unwavering support of her husband, her healthcare team, and the generosity of countless blood donors for giving her the strength to keep moving forward.
Since becoming an EPCALM-serviced patient in 2025, she has also found comfort and encouragement in a community that reminds her she is never alone. During the EPCALM Family Huddle in June 2026, Riza shared her inspiring testimony of faith, courage, and hope.
Hers is a powerful reminder that while illness may change life's journey, it can never extinguish the hope that comes from faith, love, and a compassionate community.
