Sickle Cell Disease is often called an invisible illness. A person can look perfectly healthy while their body is navigating a severe lack of oxygen.

Living with this diagnosis means managing a constant risk of a pain crisis. These episodes are sudden and require immediate medical attention, yet the resilience shown by this community is unmatched.

Swipe through for a look at the daily reality of SCD. Awareness starts with listening to the people who live it.

Most people know the name Sickle Cell but cannot explain what actually happens to the blood. It is a mechanical issue where cells change from flexible circles into stiff crescents.

When these cells lose their shape, they create blockages in the vessels. This stops oxygen from reaching the rest of the body and causes the intense pain known as a crisis.

Swipe through for a quick breakdown of the science. Understanding the biology is the first step toward being a better advocate.
