Fear and sadness are embedded with Fanconi anemia (FA), yet I have always tried to have a hopeful tone to my essays thinking of the effect on the families who read it. This one is no different. I lost my gutsy 24-year-old daughter Tara in September. She was created by God for purpose. I always told her she brought out the best in people.
