Destroying Sickle Cell Disease

Keith, Jr., affectionately known as ‘KJ’, was diagnosed with sickle cell disease at birth. At 4-years old, KJ began having monthly blood transfusions to minimize his risk of strokes and unimaginable pain. Fast- forward to December 5, 2013, KJ tapped into his inner superhero powers and began destroying his sickle cell disease through a bone marrow transplant. Sickle cell disease has been around for 100 years and our goal is to fight until it's destroyed! In the words of KJ, "sickle cell sucks!"

Monday, January 27, 2014

Today KJ has to see his bone bone marrow doctor and the kidney doctor. Praying for good news and continued healing!

Test Results..

Day+53 ...Please to say KJ's doctor visits went well - no blood or platelet transfusions today. As I mentioned before, the first 100 days are the most critical in his recovery and we are almost half way there. Feeling blessed and grateful!!
