How Did You Discover You Had Sickle Cell?
My parents discovered that I had sickle cell when I was 1 year old, but I didn’t really know what it meant and how it impacted my life till I was 10 years old. This does not mean that I didn’t have pain episodes and illnesses before that age, I did, I only felt and realized the full impact (pain, stigma, depression) from that age.
