Response Blog to Sickle Cell Anemia xD

Recently, I have learned about a horrible and common disease that's on planet Earth, sickle cell anemia. Sickle cell anemia was acknowledged by Africans in the 1870s but, the first patient was known in Chicago Illinois in 1904. Having this disease means that your blood cells are in the sickle shape. According to the publisher, you become malaria prone but, your life span is 42 years for a man and 48 for a woman. This blog was very clear about what sickle cell anemia is, what it can do and who it can effect. I feel so sad for the people with this terrible and incurable disease. Finally, this disease is terrible and anyone with this disease, I feel bad for them.
