I'm honored to have been called to launch the fundraiser for the pilot project on the use of HYDROXYUREA medication for #sicklecell patients at the Balmer Memorial Methodist Church Freetown on behalf of the #SierraLeone Sickle Cell Disease Society. #advocate#sicklecellAwareness
June was a month of #joy ( I turned 32) #grief ( my sister’s memorial) #purpose ( world #sicklecell day) and a lot of sad moments but I am #grateful for the gift of life.
Every year, we post "Happy World Sickle Cell Day " but what exactly are we doing beyond the post?
Until we change the way society responds to #sicklecell awareness alone isn't enough.
Let's stop typing and start transforming.

Please register for the Stigma conference and donate whatever you can. https://t.co/fFjO0W60SH. It is all about cultural humility. Stigma Conference has made me a better human being. It is all a journey. #Howard#stigma#conference
Palliative Care It's a type of care that focuses on relieving the symptoms, pain, and stress of a serious illness rather than curing the illness itself. The goal is to improve the patient's quality of life and support their physical, emotional, and social needs.#palliativecare

At the end of the Sierra Leonean civil war the TRC recommended January 18 - the day the war was declared over - as National Reconciliation Day. We observe this day by encouraging Sierra Leoneans to devote at least 60 minutes of their day
What if we paid more attention to #Sicklecell prevention & care for those living with the condition?
What if we had a bigger & more serious conversation about Sicklecell to inform public policy?
#KnowYourGenotype (sicklecell can be prevented)
#SickleCellAwareness
The resolution that established #WorldSickleCellDay didn’t just ask for #sicklecell disease to be recognized on June 19th, it also urged countries to fund and establish healthcare systems and specialized care to support and improve care for sickle cell disease.
