Monrovia – Thirty-one-year-old Ebola survivor Shianeh Beyan now lives as a single mother of five kids. Her story is probably more mind grappling than some of the famous stories told about the ugly impact left behind by the world’s worst deadly Ebola virus outbreak in West Africa, including Liberia in 2014. For Shianeh, every year Decoration Day, a national holiday, is a time for reflection of what the disease caused her. She goes to the Disco Hill Cemetery, along the Roberts International Airport highway, to cry profusely for her entire family who fell prey to Ebola. A total of 11,207 people died from Ebola in the three worst-hit countries, according to the WHO.
