FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT AWARE WHAT IS SICKLE CELL DISEASE AND WHY IT IS IMPORTANT TO BE TESTED FOR THE TRAIT TO BECOME MORE AWARE AND BREAK THE CYCLE. I HAVE WITNESSED HOW PATIENTS WITH SICKLE CELL ARE TREATED IN THE HOSPITAL, AND THEY ARE TREATED AS IF THEY ARE THERE JUST TO GET HIGH, AND MOST OF THE TIME ITS BECAUSE SOME MEDICAL STAFF ARENT REALLY EDUCATED ON IT. I REMEMBER A NURSE ASKING TREVENO WHAT IS SICKLE CELL? WHAT SEVERE PAIN ARE YOU GOING THROUGH THAT YOU NEED THIS MUCH PAIN MEDS? (imagine my face and what I said) He would describe his pain as the pain of a toothache or broken arm or leg then multiply it by 10,000.
