Wow I suffered a lot with criss pain just took 4Aurocet-P for pain and I am 50 years old I will be glad to welcome a cure thank God for this His mercies know no bound
Have you visited the African continent, specifically where your ancestors came from? if you have Sickle Cell you need to visit that regions of the word where your people came from and get exposed to what your ancestors were exposed to. Malaria, to build up your immunity to Sickle Cell. These corporations just want to make a buck off you when nature have the answer. This is like people with very dark skin living in northern climates who suffer from rickets and other illnesses because they aren't getting the proper vitamin D or Ultraviolet radiation from the sun. i'm sure they would call having very dark skin a disease if they could.
@@patriciacole3892u sound like u giving up... be my guest but I wouldn't ever tell or advise a person black or any other race to risk taking in another disease to fight off another disease... get a second opinion
@@KillahManjaro I'm sorry, but I dont get what or how going to Africa and getting exposed to malaria helps cure sickle cell/s.c. naturally. I have s.c., and have researched it deeply. S.c. was the bodies genetic evolutionary response to malaria. A person with s.c. is HIGHLY to completely immune to malaria.
@@savagekeyz408 You've never felt the pain of a crisis, the pain from a s.c. crisis is on a diff level from what a normal person could feel. When you want to just "be normal" and not worry about having a crisis every day. I too would have jumped at the option for that treatment when I was younger...s.c. pain will make u consider death just to not have to live with this type of pain...
Having 2 close friends and a family member that have Sickle Cell Disease..it is a HORRIBLE way to live, pain meds do not work often..people do not believe them MOST times..so sad😢
I suffer with Sickle cell Disease (SC) I'm 25 years young and eating healthy, exercising, and staying safe with my mental so I'm not stressing helps allot from me getting a crisis. My sickle cell has been mild because of personal issues of dealing with being homeless it has caused times for me to end up in the hospital. Everyone's experience and level of sickle cell crisis is different. Personally I wouldn't recieve this because its not a cure it's a test to see of it works and people dont know what happens in the long term. I was born with sickle cell disease and I'm confident it was for a reason and I am strong enough to live with it so when I die I will doe with it. Eat healthy, stress less, exercise, watch what you put in your body, yoga, meditate, be at peace and I believe that's a healthier way to live with sickle cell. People today are 80 and up living with sickle cell and I know I dont need a scientist to test on me. I have faith that I'll ne just fine. Times do get hard but in every dark cloud theres a sliver line, and my mind remains positive about my struggle with sickle cell. I will survive! Everyone dealing with sickle cell may not agree and I respect that, just commenting my opinion and thoughts for myself where all different. Have a great day, and do what you feel is best for you and dont let no one make you feel bad about that decision cause it's your shoes not theirs! ❤❤❤
I dont trust pharmakeia. My 5 year has sickle cell and we keep her away from gmos. We also keep her hydrated with water constantly and she takes natural supplements. Fortunately by Gods grace she hasn't been in and out of the hospital throughout her life. I commend you for taking the alternative route. Keep doing it.
I have sickle cell anemia and I am trying to create awareness on my youtube not just for me but also for others struggling with this disease I would be honored if anyone would like to subscribe to my channel
mohamed ali, even a small bit of homework shows that there is no inherent conflict between-most religion and science. Nevertheless, you are allowed to believe whatever like.😘
I can understand the skepticism and worry from the other sickle cell patients. Though I'm happy to hear about the success of this gene therapy treatment on her. I hope this will be the case for many others to come.
I've been through the trauma of being in agony, & doctors assume I'm faking to try to get drugs. It's demoralizing and depressing and maddening. Our health care system needs a HUGE overhaul, but at least wonderful miracles like this are happening, too. I hope the folks on this piece who're not all that excited can open their hearts to a real cure and let go of their struggles. Sometimes, we all get so accustomed to pain and having everything be hard, it can be frightening to consider being free of pain and letting things be easy. We all deserve a good and healthy life, and may we all be blessed with that!
When they think you’re seeking drugs do what I did. Call them out on it and tell them you want a drug test. See how fast they switch up and check their own biases
Sad but true. They don't believe you are in pain. Everyone is not a drug addict. I saw to many people almost lose their life to this crucial disease. All medical practice and hospitals needs to have training on this painful disease so the person with sickle cell won't be distriminated against when going to get help.
If any doctors that are from Houston Texas and y’all are watching this please for the love of God get this type of information to your supervisors because I hate to see people being sick because of the sickle cell anemia it definitely brings tears to my eyes to see people going through the same pain especially kids in Børns babies smh
OMG! I was thinking the exact same thing. I was waiting on one of the patients to say that as a follow up to HIV. Black folks, infectious disease and trials haven’t gone well in the past. Though I hope it does lead to a cure. Living with pain dying young is horrible.
@@nikkid1537 I understand you, because both of my sons were born with sickle cell anemia. One died at 7 yrs old. My other son is suffering he's 40 yrs. old. God has kept us through these hard times. The journey has been so hard. I will keep praying for all of us.
I have sickle cell and I'm quite skeptical about this proceedure. The doctor sound too Hollywood to me. If it's adopted in the UK I might change my mind as doctors here have no profit incentive and they don't do showbiz stuff. What are the peer reviews and comparative studies. None of that that was mentioned. Showing judo classes on talk show don't cut it for me.
TJ Fasan your suspicions are understandable. It’s good to be skeptical however in this case there is a lot of info you can look into about gene therapy that I’m sure will satisfy your suspicions. I hope you and many others can one day find yourselves finally cured of sickle cell anemia.

As health provider, you must address every complaint of pain as if they are real. You never judge. Always use nonjudgmental approach every situation, including pain.
What people don’t understand is that HIV is very manageable today. Many doctors would say that they would choose having controlled HIV over having uncontrolled diabetes in a heartbeat.
What kind of world are you living in, HIV is manageable? lol I can live without have kids? sounds like some well organized population control gimmick. The best course of action for these people is to go back to where there ancestors originally came from and expose themselves to Malaria. Sickle Cell is not a disease. Its a genetic adaptation by nature given to people who live or once lived in areas that have malaria. www.nature.com/scitable/topicpage/natural-selection-uncovering-mechanisms-of-evolutionary-adaptation-34539

TBH though I think I'd rather stick with the sickle cell then have HIV put into me. The doctor said the part of the HIV that allows it to infect is gone. I would love an in depth explaination for that.

The video of the vein with the blood cells clogging up is incorrect. It’s SICKLE CELL Where were the sickled cells? You’re information is a bit misleading. I have had this done and I’m the first patient and it failed. I would love to share my story.
You seem to be uneducated on your own disease. Sickle cell CAUSES clogging (clotting) of blood cells in veins, and that is what they were trying to portray.
zSib yeah but the blood cells are in a sickled shape which causes them to clump up. The ones in the graphic were normal and circular so it didn’t make sense that they would clump.
zSib If you’re going to attempt to check me then YOU might want to educate yourself. I know exactly what I’m talking about yet clearly you don’t.

God bless you guys a very very strong. See good things. Do happen.. thank God for these doctors that really care about patients. Because a lot of us .myself included,, I survived a bad stabbing two horrible car accidents. Trying to experiment when I was a teenager stealing cars and doing dumb things.

Stop giving a "God" credit for what people did. It took time and hard work to figure these things out. What do you have to say to the people who have already died and suffered from this disease? Now all of a sudden "God" wants to fix this and you give him credit? I just think it is disrespectful to the people who worked so hard to make these people lives much better.
