María Belén Marín

María Belén Marín, a 22-year-old from Caaguazú, is a brave young woman who has been battling systemic lupus erythematosus, leading to chronic kidney disease and a dependence on hemodialysis for nearly two years. Her life took a hopeful turn when her older sister, Lorena Marín, donated a kidney to her, allowing María Belén to pursue her dream of becoming a licensed nurse.
