"A Journey of Courage and Hope" by A. Shaun Kurian was created for the 2009 "P2 for a Cause" Filmmakers Award project, sponsored by Panasonic Broadcast, Abel CineTech and the Cooley's Anemia Foundation. Five filmmakers were selected to create meaningful videos about thalassemia, a fatal genetic blood disorder also known as Cooley's anemia, that requires lifelong blood transfusions and daily drug treatments. These videos help to spread information about this disorder to the public and at-risk populations. http://www.cooleysanemia.org
this video is extremely dramatised!
an average life expectancy of 40?!?!!
A patient living in a developed country, undergoing treatment correctly will live to a normal life.
of course you are going to get sick if you don't take your medicine! what a depressing example of a patient.
