THE PAIN BEHIND THE SMILE

Ever wondered how a sickle cell person coped? Ever wondered the pain they go through. Everyday babies are born who bear this illness due to their parent’s ignorance, or majorly a bitter mistake. Each victim smiles beyond the pain..

                                            Mr James is a sickle cell patient

I made New friends, on a website which is called (people living with sickle cell), people I could talk to who had something in common with me from around the world. To me going through such a phase makes you stronger and ready for future trials which may be nothing compared to being aneamic. Two couples which amazed me most are the Johnson’s they are newly wedded and have a little baby living with the disease, all I could do is encourage them. They do not really know how to go about it and they are scared because Jessica is only a baby going through the pain but I love their strength because they still smile and are hopeful.

                                 

God makes us know that being sickle cell is not the end of the world. Also, he tells us that is grace is sufficient for us.

Most people do not like drinking water but that is your saving grace. We are strong for today to live for tomorrow. Always smile through the pain, and make yourself happy.
