Oh, YAY.  I got Sickle Cell Disease...
     Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is a group of inherited red blood cell disorders. In someone who has SCD, the red blood cells become hard and sticky and look like a C-shaped farm tool called a “sickle”.
     The "sickled" cells can get stuck and clog the blood flow, which can cause severe pain and other serious issues such as infection, acute chest syndrome, and stroke.
Got Microaggressions ???
      (You bet we do!) They are brief and commonplace daily verbal, behavioral, and environmental indignities that communicate hostile, derogatory, or negative racial insults to the target person or group.
      The physical pain experienced by people with SCD is only worsened by the microaggressions we have to endure, especially by the hands of medical staff and professionals.
SPECIFICALLY, I've got ...
Hemoglobin SC (HbSC) disease
... which, is a type of SCD where individuals inherit a sickle cell gene (“S”) from one parent and from the other parent a gene for an abnormal hemoglobin called “C”. This is TYPICALLY a milder form of SCD.
