Retired at the age of 34 because of Sickle Cell Disease, Tina Kay found herself sharing her life with others. This sharing has allowed her to become a published author and a national advocate for Sickle Cell Disease presenting to the NIH, CDC, & FDA. She has her own radio show, is a State Officer for the NAACP, chaired the ADA Committee for the City of Birmingham, and mentors many young ladies living with this disease.
