Mikwus: Amen! And I pray that the Blood of Jesus continues to speak healing into your life and into the lives of all warriors. I lost a dear cousin in the US about 3 years ago to sickle cell. He had gone through a bone marrow transplant and was crisis-free for about a year until he had a relapse. Each time I think about him, my heart feels so heavy. I carry the sickle-cell trait and I have had to cut off some promising relationships due to the genotype factor. Better safe than sorry. To all warriors out there....stay strong & stay healthy! 2 Likes |

laudate: Awwwww!!!!!! , so sad. Sorry about your cousin. Thanks for the encouragement. I understand how you must feel about carring the 'S' gene. I have experienced that as well, but keep trusting God, the best is yet to come. Cheers!!!!!!!! |

lepasharon: Eat healthy, Fruits and green vegetables (esp. Pumpkin leaf). In my case, I figured it had to do with age. I was in my final year when I noticed I was filling out my clothes. Now I'm struggling to maintain a healthy BMI. I have given birth! Another baby boy. #warrior! Stay healthy people. 2 Likes |

The weather is too cold now and i think it is affecting her bcs she has been moody since yesterday bt her body is not hot. I need to get her c a doctor tomorow. pls ibadan peeps should help me out. thanks |
Re: 19th June - World Sickle Cell Anaemia Day. My Story As A Warrior by Dahjhi: 9:54pm On Aug 07, 2015 |
everfaithfulGod:Take her to any standard private hospital instead.. UCH on Strike Thats horrible for our country.... |
Re: 19th June - World Sickle Cell Anaemia Day. My Story As A Warrior by everfaithfulGod(f): 1:05am On Aug 08, 2015 |
Dahjhi:Thank you for your response. We've taken her to another hospital and has been playing since then except that she cant stand to her feet or walk. she tried to stand bt couldnt. we were told it is crisis. i pray she get over it soon. I am realy feeling for her. Any suggestn on home remedy to ease the pain wil be appreciated. Thanks |
Re: 19th June - World Sickle Cell Anaemia Day. My Story As A Warrior by tabontabon: 5:45am On Aug 08, 2015 |
Make Sure She Wears Cardigan And Her Clothing Covers Her Leg,long Gown/trousers,apply Robb/light Balm On The Chest,legs And Hands After Bathing.Take Warm Liquid In The Morning And Encourage Her To Drink Enough Water. everfaithfulGod: |
Re: 19th June - World Sickle Cell Anaemia Day. My Story As A Warrior by everfaithfulGod(f): 6:25am On Aug 08, 2015 |

Re: 19th June - World Sickle Cell Anaemia Day. My Story As A Warrior by tabontabon: 6:44am On Aug 08, 2015 |
I Forgot To Mention,diet Plays An Important Role. Vegetable And Beans/egg Should Be Encouraged. You Can Get Fresh Ugwu Squeeze The Juice(like You Do Bitter Leaf) Add Liquid Milk To The Juice,let Her Drink,it's Good For The Blood. Also Get Astymin Not Astyfer. If She Is The Eating Type Then You Are Lucky.Avoid Dependence On Junk Food Just Make It A Treat . everfaithfulGod: |
Re: 19th June - World Sickle Cell Anaemia Day. My Story As A Warrior by Dahjhi: 7:30am On Aug 08, 2015 |
everfaithfulGod:That's cool. I'm not sure you will need any home remedy @ the moment. I will guess the medical personnel should have jab her enough of pain killers. all she needed now should be just the playing and relaxing with her normal food. And give her a lot water to drink too.. also follow all instructions from the clinic... #SheLives. #Shallom. |
Re: 19th June - World Sickle Cell Anaemia Day. My Story As A Warrior by everfaithfulGod(f): 11:08pm On Aug 09, 2015 |
Dahjhi:thank you so much |
Re: 19th June - World Sickle Cell Anaemia Day. My Story As A Warrior by everfaithfulGod(f): 11:12pm On Aug 09, 2015 |
tabontabon:Yes she is an eating type and she is already on astymin. Really appreciate your contributions |

tabontabon my doc said the ugwu leaves water isnt good for the heart so He advised against it |
Re: 19th June - World Sickle Cell Anaemia Day. My Story As A Warrior by tabontabon: 5:36am On Aug 10, 2015 |
Treasuremabel i will advice you google about medicinal value of ugwu leave. Any doctor worth his/her salt will not make such statement.if you are sick(crisis,pregnancy) and want to maintain a good pcv,use ugwu leave extract and milk. Am in my mid thirties,i know how many blood transfusions i have escaped till now. |

I thinks this might help....Sickle Cell Foundation of Nigeria is a cool place. They've got labs and offer clinical services there too. You can run tests, treat leg ulcer, and get genetic advice from them. Check out the facebook page here - https://www.facebook.com/sicklecellfoundation/ |

Amynamerica: I am an AA genotype i am in love with a SS lady and she would be 26 this year.. Now the thing is this .... the first thing people tell me when I discuss it with them is "do you have blood to donate?" Also What about childbirth Can an SS lady give birth naturally.. I want to marry her.. What advice would you give me? |
Re: 19th June - World Sickle Cell Anaemia Day. My Story As A Warrior by sirblend: 9:45am On Feb 26 |
dupsai: Good morning! I am of the genotype AA Presently, I am in love with a girl who is SS and she will be 26 years this year.... I told my parents about it and what I hear from them is "do I have blood to donate"? "They cannot give birth naturally except through surgery" "Do I want to spend all my money on sickness" Personally I don't know anything about sickle cell people.. I have been trying to gather more info about them.. I would need you to clarify me on some issues.. |
Re: 19th June - World Sickle Cell Anaemia Day. My Story As A Warrior by lanre47: 4:51pm On Feb 26 |
I don't think their is much to fear. As long as you are AA, you can never have SS children. the worst case your will have AS. As per blood, is not like that. As long as they eat healthy, take their routine drugs, boil sorghum leave and drink, this gives them blood, you would not need to be donating blood . Take care. |
