 Most of the people in society presume that once a child is diagnosed with Thalassemia major, they can never live a normal life or can never be cured. But the fact is, if a child diagnosed with Thalassemia major is given regular blood transfusions and their hemoglobin is maintained between 9 to 11 gram person by regular blood transfusions and they are started on iron chelation at a right time can almost live a normal life. Also, procedures like bone marrow transplantation and gene therapy can cure Thalassemia major for whole of their life. Thank you.
