Aside from sickle cell and epilepsy, I am kindly asking if you know of any job opportunities that you could recommend for me. I have been idle for a while now, and I am tired of doing nothing. I want to be productive and contribute meaningfully to my life and those around me.

Despite living with sickle cell and epilepsy, I am now a grown man who understands the value of responsibility.
I know that managing my health will always be part of my life, but it does not define me or my ability to work and grow.
I am ready to face life's challenges with courage and determination, and I believe I can still offer value in the right role.

I do not expect anyone to pity me or pay my bills on my behalf. What I am looking for is a fair chance to work, earn, and take care of myself like any other adult.
I understand my limits, and I am looking for opportunities that are flexible and allow me to manage my health while still being consistent and reliable.

I am Zambian, and I am open to both local and remote work that fits my situation. If you know of any openings in any field that can accommodate my condition, I would truly appreciate your help and guidance.šŸ˜„šŸ˜„

Warrior to warrior

We never speak enough about sometimes it's our own family that cause us to have mental break down by how we are treated when we get sick ??? The same people we are strong for the same people we still face tomorrow for

Sometimes they don't see our strength and effort immediately we get sick we cant handle it the are the same one throwing around words
Like it's not that bad stop being weak be strong

You tell them am in pain I need to go to the Hospital No I won't take you you aren't that bad ???we can manage this at home Or we will go tomorrow? Or no you don't need your morphine now you are okay you are faking it ????

How do people eat and tell stories whilst one goes through the most excruciating pain ?
How do people sleep knowing that your friend had to cry themselves to sleep?

Am telling you this kind of behavior hurts more than a sickle cell crisis. I never thought one would feel so lonely surrounded by so many people .

We know you are tired !!! If you are tired am more likely more tired than you there days am in pain I won't tell you , I will handle it my self so when I open up don't treat me like am burden or go like not again!!

We know you probably think having sickle cell for years we are now used to the pain but look no one gets used to being burnt or being bushed by a car or breaking a bone just because you have have gone through it over and over again it will hurt again when it happens again.

It's called a chronic condition for reason it never goes anywhere it's here to stay . So be nice,some of you are the reason sickle cell warriors are depressed or have resorted to su***de.
Please be kind we are at our most vulnerable state when in pain we need all the emotional support we can get!!! Being silent and present is the best listen to us we know ourselves and what works.

Someone once said to me, "I wish I were you." And I ended up saying thank you and asked that person, "If you wish you were me, do you know my journey of life? Do you know what struggles I've been through just to reach where I am today?

If you were me, would you manage to take different meds almost every day, from Monday to Monday, week to week, January to December, morning, afternoon, and night? Would you manage to endure the pain that at some point doesn't get calm even though taking more powerful painkillers? Would you manage missing great opportunities due to being identified as a sickle cell patient, even though at some point you feel you can manage taking the opportunity but they still argue with you, thinking you're weak?

Would you manage undergoing hospitalizations sometimes month after month, to an extent where you just wish you weren't born? People often don't realize the struggles that come with this condition. From managing daily medication to dealing with unpredictable pain and hospitalizations, it's a constant battle. And what's even tougher is when others doubt your capabilities because of your condition.

Sometimes let's learn to be grateful in whatever situation we venture into. Be yourself, be content with what you have, be content with who you are. Never admire someone's life. Yes, admirations are good sometimes, but the most greatest thing despite admirations is to be inspired. You can admire, but from just admiring, it's good to get inspirations, for inspirations will get to transform you into changing your life to that person you want to be.

Dear fellow sickle cell warriors, please let's learn to be our own self. Yes, we are sickle cell patients, but who knows, through that sickle, you might be your own boss. Remember, we never chose to be born like this, but God did, meaning there's a reason He had to choose you to be in this sickle cell category. Yes, sickle cell disease is a tough journey, and it's incredible how you are handling it with such strength and resilience.

Keep shining your light, warriors! šŸ’ŖšŸ™ Your struggles don't define you; your strength and courage do.

That pain of sleeping without knowing how you slept and waking up wondering if you dreamt or if you wept. Sleeping like a bag of cement dumbed in one place, can't move on my own unless somebody saves me. And when that somebody comes to save me, they shout in waking me up but scrub my feet gently, because once they shout I end up fitting like no man's business.

Every morning is a question: what did my body do? Bruises as the answer, and nobody there but you. All these nights of silence, all these days of doubt. This is what epilepsy is all about.

Otherwise, sickle cell crisis is better than epilepsy. For sickle cell crisis you are able to feel how it is coming and you are able to find a way of preventing it from taking it's toll. But for epilepsy it is something that does not give a sign of it's coming.

It's something that you don't expect - you just suddenly start fitting and just find yourself on a hospital bed wondering how you got there. The rest becomes a story hearing from people telling you how it happened, because you yourself cannot remember anything

To the woman after my heart, my woman King, my mother through and through: Happy Mother's Day to you.

Thank you so much for being my biological mother. Thank you for being the source of my happiness. When I'm wrong, you correct me. Even after correcting me, and even if I I hurt you, you never stop smiling at me.

When I'm in bad mood, you still pull me close to calm me down and help me find myself again. In sickness, I give up, but you keep me courageous and strong.
You still believe in me even when I doubt myself.

People call me names, but you call me a blessing. I love you, Mom and I am very much proud to be called your last born child.

Living with sickle cell, I've learned to harness my voice as a powerful tool for worship. Inside me, a fire burns that cannot be tamed. God gave me this voice to praise Him, to find solace in the storm. When pain becomes overwhelming, singing brings me back to solid ground. Though seizures and crises may take their toll, they will not silence the praise that overflows from my heart. This is my ministry, this is what sustains me. Every note is a declaration of faith, a testament to God's goodness.

Having sickle cell didnā€™t stop meā€”people tried to bury me with their words, but I chose to grow instead. Your condition, your struggles, or what people say about you do not define your future. You are stronger than what youā€™re going through. Keep pushing, keep believingā€”your goals are still valid, and you can achieve them.
