As someone with the same condition, this right here is where it's at, the physical support is very important and she'll never take it for granted. Every warrior needs someone like you in their corner.
My girl had a sickle cell crisis yesterday, it was hella late when she decided to go to the ER.. she kept apologizing bc she knew I had to be up at 6 for work, I told her I knew what I signed up for when I met her and I’m not going any mfn where

We should all fear for the next generation of doctors! This constant need to shame their patients on social media as opposed to treating them, is only going to hurt the patients in the long run... What happened to patient - doctor confidentiality , more so empathy!

What they don't tell you is that running a company involves asking yourself on a daily " Who asked you to do it? " You were fine under employment, but you thought ohh I can start something & be great at it 🤣. Emotional damage!!

I admire people who can sleep through the rain, rain for me, means my anxiety is going up! I start worrying about how I'm most likely going to get a pain crisis. I start thinking about the right clothes to put on, to keep the pain away, then it just becomes a cycle.

When dealing with SCD the patient’s voice is the most important one, no one understands what the patient is feeling but the patient! It’s important for medical practitioners to listen to understand not to listen to respond!
