Sickle Cell Disease Awareness
A candle loses none of its light by lighting another candle!
Welcome and thank you for coming!
Here you will learn and leave understanding "the real" about Sickle Cell Disease.
The one thing that you must always remember is:
EVERY PERSON DEALING WITH SICKLE CELL HAS THEIR OWN DIFFERENT EXPERIENCE!
The person diagnosed . . .
each family member . . . .
and every supporter . . . .
has to deal with a full range of medical challenges, feelings & experiences from:
VERY VERY GOOD DAYS
TO
ABSOLUTELY THE WORSE DAY OF OUR LIFE!
Please keep this in mind because for us, more than others, we truly live one day at a time.
Unfortunately "most people" just don’t understand!
Out of site / out of ear shot/ out of mind
Sickle Cell is NOT cured, but there is a cure!
The only cure is for sickle cell is Bone Marrow.
Read full story on About Marrow/Statistics Page!!!
If everyone who could would register their marrow
then donate if they are found to be a match
persons diagnoses with Sickle Cell Disease would be cured!
(Marrow can cure other diseases too!)
There is so much to learn! Take your time. We'll be here.
This website was created the last week of May 2009 because it was asked by someone, "Give me your website!"
We will be as helpful as possible with information because there is much to learn.
We are keeping it real and presenting the facts . . . . all of the facts. We will post links that you can refer to, so our credibility can be verified! This is too serious a subject not to be believed.
Please visit often! We do our best to update the site often.
Thank you for caring!!
