Sickle-cell disease (SCD), also known as sickle–cell anaemia (SCA), is a hereditary blood disorder, caused by an abnormality in the oxygen-carrying protein haemoglobin found in red blood cells leading to a propensity for the cells to assume an abnormal, rigid, sickle-like shape under certain circumstances.
You can read more about her tremendous life in Sickle Cell Disease Journal. Be inspired. 1 Like

"She celebrated her 90th birthday November 1, 2015, an achievement that is clearly in defiance of science. She was born in November 1925, at a time when the average life expectancy of people living with sickle cell disorder was just 5years and today older than all known (documented) sickle cell patients in the world." ^^^^^^ God is indeed bigger than any science. Most wonderful God. .. ![]() ![]() 2 Likes |

chris4gold:My mother lives with sickle cell and she is above 50yrs. She suffered as a child. She was given all sort of things as treatment. She even had a special pot for snake meat. sometimes during crises, they will tie her upper arms and legs very tight with rafia and keep her on a mat outside the house or put her in a big basin of hot water. The woman suffer no be small. Na only she go find out her problem wen she grow older and don tire for the matter. |
