Praising God for his hedge of protection over you this past year. I pray blessings over you as we enter 2023. May it be filled with love with both, family friends, and snuggles and giggles from you grands. Conttinued prayers for you, my friend. Laura

Shonda, you are a warrior. Continued love and prayers! 💗

High Five - You Go, Girl!
You have encouraged me so much in the past that I know you have a deep well of Amazing Strength and Joy and Perseverance. You not only talk it - you walk it!
Thank you for who you are! Love and Prayers,
Me

Shonda, I’ve long admired your positivity, tenacity, perseverance…the list is long really, but the way you have/continue to tackle this challenge is nothing short than graceful.
Your reflection is beautifully honest and inspiring.
Love you!

Shonda Ann... you are one of if not THE strongest person I know.... and have been for at least the 30 plus years we have known each other. I admire your strength, your faith, and your positive vibes. Stay strong. Love you!!

I don't pretend to comprehend what even one moment of your journey has been like, and I won't lie and say I wish I had your strength because there's that part of me that thinks there's only one way to get it. But I will say I have an indescribable admiration for you, your honesty, and, indeed, your strength. Ironically, my #OneWord for 2023 is #Grateful. I feel almost guilty even telling you that. Like, I have to remind myself to be grateful when my life is a cakewalk compared to you and so many others? But you do remind me that I have so, so, so much to be grateful for. Knowing you is one of them. Please know I pray for you every single day and I won't stop.

I wish everyone with a scary diagnosis would be handed this post a few days after diagnosis so they could experience your light.

Best post ever! You are amazing!
