Living with Sickle Cell

This video is just me sending out a plea to viewers out there especially the Sickle Cell Foundation, MTV True Life and any talk show that would use this as a topic to get the word out about Sickle Cell Anemia and how I and may others are suffering, dying and babies still being born with it everyday. I would like for the whole world to know and be more educated and have more awareness of it, and then more research can be done to find a cure.

i have SS. lived with it my whole life and it SUCKS! i totally agree. & i deal with pain everyday & i think nothing is done about it. theres so much awareness about cancer & aids but if you ask someone what Sickle cell is they wouldnt know. I promise you im only 15 yrs old. but im going to be a junior & everyday when i get older i will research & strive to get something done about this so no1 has to experience what we do. im dedicating my life to it right now. & i WILL find a cure. i HAVE to

hi my name is roshawn and i have had this scd since birth. im currently in the hospital in recovery stage from a bad crisis now my whole body is very sore and it get very upset to see people coming up with cures for many different things accept sickle cell which i think is on the same level as cancer. we desprately ineed of a cure for this, it need to heard and told about before its too late.

I have the worse form of SC & the worse form of Thallesemia. One one doesn't do the other does. I am in constant pain on a daily basis. My life is centered around the pain instead of the pain centered around my life. I thank God that although I deal with daily pain, I am still alive to feel the pain. 35 years and counting!
