Abby Asistio: Facebook Invitation for Friends Day Celebration

January 32, 2016 - Abby Asistio flew to San Francisco to attend the 12th Anniversary Friends Day celebration with California-based Alopecia Awareness Advocate, Rachel Regal. Abby was chosen as one of the 18th friends invited by Facebook. Alopecia is an auto-imune condition which results in partial or total head and body hair loss. Ms Asistio had it since she was four. While Rachel just developed it sometime in 2012, the same year she discovered that her 10-year old daughter, Eliana had it, too. Six inspiring stories were picked by Facebook among it's 1.64 billion users and Abby's friends were all amazed when they found out that Abby's story was one of them. Imagine that!

Abby and Rachel met each other through the double A hand sign campaign that Abby started in 2012. They've been "connected" since then. Last year, Facebook Stories featured how these two were able to build a friendship, as well as campaign for disease awareness through Facebook! On the 1st of February, Abby and Rachel had the chance to tour Facebook Headquartes in Menlo Park, San Francisco. Meet and chat with the people behind Facebook such as the Founder & CEO Mark Zuckerberg, COO Sheryl Sandberg, CPO Chris Cox and a whole lot of awesome people. They get crazy cool gadgets and have one of the best experience of their lives.
