No one has to die because the shape of their red blood cell differs from another.
No one should be labelled a ‘sickler’ because of a combination of alphabets.
No one should say ‘I do’ with fear in their hearts.
No one should count down to the day of their death,when they should be living life.
No one should have to celebrate each passing birthday with fear.
No one should put their future on hold because of uncertainty.
No one should be denied the gift of seeing the world from the alps.
No one should be scared to see creation from its deepest depths.
No one should be denied the tales by moonlight around a bonfire.
We have lost our loved ones to the sickle cell anaemia.
We can’t lose anymore.
We have seen them fight for their lives.
And we can join them too.
We can raise awareness about the disease.
We can get tested to know our alphabets.
We can stop spreading stigma and start spreading love.
We can’t stop the ripper ,but we can tell it not today and certainly not tomorrow.
Know your alphabets now!
