I met shahonna almost 2 years ago on the aplastic anemia Facebook page about 4 months after I was diognosed I was at NIH for what was supposed to be a 1 day trip and ended up being admitted for H-ATG I was alone and scared and she reached out to me and we had an instant connection. I felt like she was the only person who knew how I was feeling and what I was going through and we became the best of friends anytime I would get scared or nervous about something and we would talk she would tell me it's ok chicken little the sky isn't falling! We had such an awesome friendship she was the strongest person I ever met she always knew just what to say to motivate me to do anything I'm sad I never got my chance to meet her but she left a tremendous impact on so many people and will be missed so much
