One of my best friends died from sickle cell.

Wish he had the opportunity to get this.

One of my coldest chicks of my past has a family gene of this and her BD had it himself, bad as hell.

2 of her daughters have it bad. I know she'd love this information but she is in prison for another year. I'll definitely let her know when she calls me through. This is big news low key.

if shes in prison isn't there a way for her to get the state to get her treated?

I'm surprised I didn't see this flood Black Media. This is from last year. Just popped in my feed randomly.

My son has sickle cell, already had his spleen removed. Hopefully one day he'll be free from the disease

My boy got it its bad. Been keeping it together tho he in hospital 2-3x a year for it. He brought this drug up last month actually said hes getting it soon. Hes doing tests for it today. But then its the lifelong opiate addiction to deal with.

I think the guy in the OP wasn't the first to be cured, just the first to be cured in NY. Really dope! Hopefully it becomes more widely used and affordable to the masses.

Probably so, but she doesn't have seizures, she just has the gene. Her BD is a sickly dude who has them a lot, so 2 out of her 3 kids have it and get them.

If it hits the market she gotta sign off on it but she'd probably be out by then so they should be good. Imma definitely tell her when she calls this weekend.
