Nigerian doctor, Chioma @Deekachy_md, shared the photos of the elderly woman, Alhaja Alakija, who according to her has lived with sickle cell anemia for 94 years. She shared the photos to disabuse the minds of Nigerians who believe that Sickle cell patients can't live longer than 22.

Prevention is still the best. I can't imagine how much goes to her medical bills, how many families can afford that? Asides that, it is a life of constant pain. Before you go too far in a relationship, know your genotype, end it before it becomes too difficult, love enough cannot overcome it. I have seen and heard very loving couples get torn apart because of a sickle cell child. I have seen a sickle cell patient abandoned at National hospital by his very wealthy parents. 73 Likes 1 Share |
