Daily life:

Daily life for a person with Sickle Cell is difficult one. I saw it first hand. My aunts girlfriend Jay had Sickle Cell and life was really hard for her. Often times she felt nauseous and sick. One time we went to the science center and we had to climb up several floors. Jay had to carry a respirator with her to help her breath. I didn’t know until researching this disease how hard it was for her. She died about 6 years ago at the age of 29. Sickle Cell makes simple activies you could do normaly, require a lot of effort and help. For example climbing a few flights of stairs or excersicing.
