Stephanie aka The Warrior, was born with Sickle Cell Blood disease. Sickle Cell Disease is a group of inherited red blood cell disorders. Healthy red blood cells are round, and they move through small blood vessels to carry oxygen to all parts of the body. In SCD, the red blood cells become hard and sticky and look like a C-shape. The sickle cells die early, which causes a shortage of red blood cells. Also, when they travel through your blood vessels, they get stuck and clog the blood flow. This causes pain, infection, acute chest syndrome and possibly stroke. Sickle cell is diagnosed with a simple blood test.
