Person wey dey chuuk Sickler get mind o

ramdris:
At least this one did not show us her tummy as other mumu ones dey do...My dear..

roqrules04:
She no wan add to her sickle cell so she just respect herself cover the tummy

itzzhoneybee:
Yes but at least she is willing to take d risk and looks happy
Sicklers also live up to their old age

ziga:
With good health care, a lot of people with medical problems can live a reasonably good life.

Thank goodness she is in London.

Definitely wouldn't happen in our NAIJA.

MissRaine69:
Why gamble though? There is a huge chance one of the children will have sickle cell diseases 50% to be exact. And yes they can live longer now but it's not an easy road to maybe 50 if that.

Hkana:
Are you saying there's 50% chance one child of a sickle cell patient will also be a sickle cell patient?
Did you consider the possibility of her husband being AA before posting that?

RIPEnglish:
she was locky, i wished her the best & long live.

Medically n genetically if she gets married to a man with AA all her kids wud be As. No ss
So she isn't gambling anything
Its only if she gets married to a man with As genotype that she stands d risk of having a sickle cell child

I stand to be corrected

MissRaine69:
Yep.

Pidgin2:
I am tempted to say keep quiet. I know many so called sicklers well above forty years here. What remedy have they been using? Good old African herbal. They are still alive

Hkana:
You're very wrong about that conclusion. There's a huge difference between "carrier" and "patient". If you had said SS patients birth carriers (at least) you would have been correct.

geekybabe:
Sicklers who find their way outside nigeria and can access quality health care and healthy lifestyles usually live a good life. And they live long too.
Things are harder in dis naija

MissRaine69:
I am aware ..of the genotype issues
That does not rule out that one of the children will be a carrier

itzzhoneybee:
Carrier yes
Sickler nope
If the carrier I.e an AS marries AA only one out of four kids stands d chance of being a carrier and d cycle goes on and on
If only ppl wud listen and enough awareness is created this s.s thing is very easy to fade out totally or be reduced to d bearest minimum
As marry AA only
Ss marry AA only
