Work work work work

Hey guys I've been super busy lately. All I've been doing is WORK WORK WORK and trying to get things together for school. ( and also trying not to throw myself into a crisis from over working myself ) but anyway... Working in retail I go home stuff every night. I am trying to find a job where I don't have to do so much moving, but for now this has to work because I NEED MONEY.

STAY STRONG

I just want to raise awareness for a disease that ruins quality of life for so many people in the world. Worrying about taking your meds everyday, when you will get sick again, health insurance, prescriptions, getting a job that will understand, friends who will include you, a partner who will love you no matter what, how will my kids/ future kids be affected?! Being thrown into a sickle cell crisis at any time means you could be sick on vacation, at your wedding, An important meeting, your kids graduation. It's a life of worrying, and planning to a T! Why do so many other diseases get such grand exposure and when I tell people I have Sickle Cell they ask " what is that? " 

I get very discouraged by my lack of support. Yes I am asking for financial donations to help start my T-shirt line for awareness BUT I also just want blog views, to just READ a blog post. Or not even my blog GOOGLE sickle cell!! Educate yourself. People say "whatever you need just let me know" when you let them know it's crickets. But it won't stop my fight, it won't kill my voice. I will keep posting and talking about sickle cell because more needs to be know on about the most common genetic blood disorder. 

STAY STRONG KEEP FIGHTING KEEP TALKING

Sickle Cell Dictionary: Hemoglobin

or haemoglobin is a complex protein that contains iron and transports oxygen in red blood cells. Sickle Cell is caused by a mutation in the haemoglobin gene; causing an abnormal hemoglobin ( Hemoglobin S ) which distorts red blood cells into abnormal, and crescent like shapes.

Hemoglobin S is the most common abnormal hemoglobin.

What's your type?

Of course my bold type is O- so no saving the world one blood donation at a time for me ( you definitely wouldn't want my bad blood) but I do want your good blood! I encourage everyone that can to donate as soon as possible, you truly CAN save a life! I have had to get blood transfusions many times in my life, and if it wash for those O- donors lord knows what would have happened!! Look out for blood drives in your area, Check Out Red Cross' Website for more info.

Sick Days

When I am sick people probably think I am the biggest B-Word.. All I do is sleep, or watch tv I ignore all texts/phone calls and have the shortest temper. My family understands that's just the pain talking but others aren't so used to it lol. Sleep Is the best medicine in my book, especially on rainy/dark days like today is in my town. I'm currently not in pain but I know a lot of warriors who are right now! Stay, hydrated, medicated and positive!!!

Stay Strong
