@ibbfan, love should take a back seat when innocent lives are at stake @spoilt, we will become friends again when either you (a) apologise. (b) give proof that sickle cell anemia is like a headache in the first world. |

@ topic- yes. It's all about making informed decisions devoid of sentiments. The problem in this part of the world is that opponents and proponents capitalize on sentiments despite the realities of today's happenings. Make a thorough research online and see a medical expert on options available and if none of the available remedies suit you, back out. Okpula! |

I'm not waiting. I told you I'm not holding my breath. And I have no problems about[b] not[/b] associating with a person who says such wicked things and remains unrepentant. For the record, my apologies were for my outburst and implied threats of violence. I have no apologies about considering your words as wickedness because they are. |

Yes definitely why not! theres a 1 in 4 chance that u will generate ss babies SS is at worse when combined with other diseases so Its best to visit a geneticist to check any potentially harmful diseases in your family history and you can always adopt if your fears are too high |

There is nothing God cannot do if you believe in Him. But, if ur faith cannot carry you then go for another person. |

please stop right away or else you will get what you will nurse for the rest of your life. Meaning that, there is a possibility that you will have a child with SS. |

A friend just called my attention to this topic and I would rather suggest that those advocating for faith should rather channel their faith to the fact that God can lead them to someone else who is not a carrier. It makes no sense bringing a child to the world to suffer. I see it rather as being wicked and selfish. If truly you love the person you should be kind enough to let him or her go. Love is about giving, God so loved that he gave. Let the person be able to get a good life, a life where he or she wouldn't have to spend the rest of his/ her life worried of crises and burial of a child. thanks 1 Like |

I don't think its ideal. Cos if yu eventually do get married, there's every possibility that one of yur kids would be SS. And I don't think yu would want to live yur lives in guilt seeing that child going thru crisis and pain. But if yu want to go on sha and yu know yur up to the task, its yur choice and good luck with that. |

I know one couple that took the risk, the first two male children r AS. the woman began to worry her husband for a third child cos she need a female but he refused. Unfortunately the man had succumed to her emotional demand and got her pregnant again. The last time I spoke with the woman, she knew within her mind that the fate of that unborn child is somethin to be woried about. She must be regreting her action now cos she sound very akward with d preg. |

Do not take a decision yet until you read this http://www..com/health-sickle-cell-anemia Are done reading it? So let me ask a question? However you answer is between you and your conscience. If you know there’s a substantial risk, even 25 percent, that you’ll bring a child in the world to suffer serious health problems and a shortened life, should you take that risk? Think about it. |

Please anyone here can help out. Come across this beautiful page on Google and I decided to write you for a best positive answer. Because am do curious and at the same time so puzzled. I'm 28 and I will be hitting 29 this year 2016. I'm encouraged to go do my genotype n blood group test but the result shows wat surprises me a lot cos I don't really know if it's possible or they gave me the wrong result. The result shows I'm SS, but the I don't get sick, my highest sickness is malaria up till now, I have an elder brother who's SS and we all know him as that he get sick always and my dad always get him treated and a book to guide him with drugs. How come my parents doesn't know I'm SS till date. Is it even position I'm SS and don't get sick till now? And how come will my parent doesn't know about this or is it possible genotype changes? Please help me out am so confused and my dream gf wife to be is AC and I have never seen her get sick also. We have been dating for 5yrds now also. I really need someone to enlighten me. Thanks |
Re: Can Two People With AS Genotype Marry? by femiakinlonu: 1:42pm On Mar 21, 2016 |
Hmmmn! Having read through all the comments, i feel really troubled for our world. Man naturally likes to live and thread paths that offers no challenge or suggests impending danger. The first question we need to answer is : Why should people marry? Whats the primary purpose of marriage? If this is well understood then one will be armed will the right approach to the genotype issue. Something still surprises me. We encourage the guy above to have faith for another partner yet we dont think it makes sense to have faith to give birth to as or aa. Faith is not "wishing". Faith is a knowing that the outcome will be good. Notice i said "knowing". Now marriage is filled with many unkown challenges. E.g lack of child birth, autism, cerebal palsy, paralysis, sickle cell, cancer, etc. People who encountered any of these challenges never desired it but were eventually forced to live with it. Now isnt it wisdom to set our hearts in positions where we are strong to face any challenge ahead because they will surely come. The point isnt seeking what we term "appropriate conditions for marriage" rather we should have two folkd who see marriage as an opportunity to show our love triumphs over life challenges and difficulties. Our many comments only makes SS folks now living appear hopeless and worthless. Being SS isnt fatal. Its only a call for the individual to reach out to the superior spirit within and live out that victory. Remember when jesus was asked about the man born blind, saying whos at fault. Jesus said no one was to be blamed, but that the situation was there for Gods glory to be manifest. See, we can only enjoy life if we live it by faith. We were created to be driven by the unseen. Today you refuse to apply faith to genotyoe issues. But if in future you are struck with cancer you will then seek faith as the only hope. Be faithfilled folks. 7 Likes |
Re: Can Two People With AS Genotype Marry? by femiakinlonu: 2:07pm On Mar 21, 2016 |
dakmanzero: You keep talking about the pain the ss child feels. Why not emphasise the power available for them to be pain free. What about the several possible pains that comes from sicknesses you have no control over. What if you are struck with cancer? Who will you blame? What will you do? Maybe soon we ll be told that only if AA and AA gets married that there ll be no chance for cancer. Again if traffic experts in lagos tells you the chance of surviving road accidents on our roads you ll be shocked. Does that mean you wont live for work? Death lives with us, pain surrounds us, yet we make faith choices to go ahead with our lives. SS is an issue that should never be a determinant of who we choose to marry. 3 Likes 1 Share |

I think 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/ |

Re: Can Two People With AS Genotype Marry? by Kemine05: 7:09am On Dec 17, 2017 |
This subject matter is always too sensitive. Yes, with technology, PGD/PGS, couples who are sickle cell carriers can have their own babies. But it is expensive and currently, no clinic can carry out the full process, they send gamete abroad. And that's the reason for the high cost. I know most intending couples don't like to hear this but if you know, cost is going to be an issue, kindly go your separate ways, don't bring children into an unbearable suffering. Meanwhile, I will like your answers on this short survey; https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Y-f0DbQZKcN8j3r9XonBt4bGUUD3Rm5qZxLph5V9EGw/edit Thank you. |

But I have a problem here. My last 4 relationships between 2015 and now are all AS. I am also AS. One reason I had to break up with each of them until this fourth person is for same genotype issue. As it stands now, I am afraid of even asking out another girl, because she night be AS. So sometimes I am forced to think its in my destiny to marry an AS. I 1 Like |
