So part of my #growth is to step outta my 🦀#crabshell ♋ & #share some of my everyday experiences living with #SickleCell. Multiple traumas can stagnate & unconsciously fill you with fear. There was a time where #SickleCellAwareness & advocacy played a large role in my #life. I'd go to every Sickle Cell event, meeting, & walk-a-thon, but somewhere down the line I unconsciously allowed the back to back traumatic experiences suppress my #Spirit. As a result, I isolated myself. Literally closed myself away...Hid myself away with the window curtains drawn. My #ego couldn't #accept all the #health crises, surgeries, & instability. I felt like there was no point in sharing my story because I was in such a dark place and I didn't have a positive word for anybody. . I've worked hard to pull myself up out of the deep well of depression & #feel it's time to be the #SickleCellAdvocate #Ifeel #Iam. Letting go of resistance & negative thought patterns gives space to #allowing what is while working towards #elevating. Perpetually #healing! . #GoodMorning, it's #TransfusionDay! #SickleCellWarrior

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited blood disorder that is present at birth. Healthy red blood cells with normal hemoglobin are round and move easily all over the body. When someone has SCD, the red blood cells are hard and sticky. They are shaped like the letter C (and like a farm tool called a sickle). These damaged red blood cells (sickle cells) clump together. They can’t move easily through the blood vessels. They get stuck in small blood vessels and block blood flow. This blockage can cause pain. It can also damage major organs. Recognizing how sickle cell impacts your life may help spark important discussions with others. Help me bring more awareness about Sickle Cell Anemia. #passionroosevelt #sicklecelladvocate #motivationalspeaker #awareness #sicklecellanemia #sicklecellwarrior #ifight4aliving #sicklecell #diseasecontrol #health #wellness #healthyliving #sicklecellawareness #sicklecellwarriors #sicklecellmatters #sicklecellsucks #sicklecellstrong #sicklecelltrait #education #enjoylife #liveyourlife https://www.instagram.com/p/CLkV2eGgmWE/?igshid=ae902ejh9oqa
