Sickle cell disease affects more than the individual living with the condition. It impacts the entire family.

In this heartfelt moment, a daughter shares what it’s like having a parent with sickle cell disease.

While those moments can be difficult, she understands it’s because her mom isn’t feeling well.

Her story is a powerful reminder that sickle cell disease touches every member of the family and highlights the importance of support, understanding, and awareness.
