Welcome Post!

Sickle Cell Anemia is a disease that affects numerous of African Americans and many more worldwide. Many people were unaware of the illness, so there was not many foundations and advocates for the disease. It was not until T-Boz from TLC shared her diagnose with sickle cell anemia, that made people intrigue and start to investigate into what this disease really is. In our blog "Sickle Cell Warriors", we wish to bring more insight and awareness to sickle cell anemia and how to combat it. When you turn on the television, you always can find a commercial for people with cancer, diabetes and other illnesses. Very rarely do you see ads about sickle cell or treatment centers for it. In out blog, we will have information about sickle cell anemia, so people can read and understand the disease. New posts and material will be updated weekly to keep you inform of new news about sickle cell disease. We will have videos of people spreading awareness and also personal stories from persons who are affected by sickle cell anemia. With our slogan "fighting and providing for sickle cell awareness one red blood cell at a time", we can help shed light for people affected by sickle cell disease.
