Four courageous teens joined us on Juneteenth and World Sickle Cell Day to share their battle with sickle cell disease and its associated health complications. Sickle cell warriors Skylar Dandridge, David Dandridge III, Tymia Green and Dreylan Holmes talked about the unique challenges they’ve faced while growing up with sickle cell, how they’re learning to advocate for themselves and others, and ways more teens and adults can join them in the fight through lifesaving blood donations. ❤️ Big thank you to Lyric Porter, a WebMD staff-writer and the third patient in the world to receive stem cell gene therapy to treat her sickle cell disease, for joining us to host this conversation! #TeamUp4SickleCell #WorldSickleCellDay #SickleCellDisease #SickleCell #SickleCellAwareness #SickleCellWarrior
