them cells

them cells.... are cells which you are given without your permission, they are cells which we are born with, naturally no one ask you what particular kind of cells you want else no one would go for a blue cell. i call them blue cells because they are gloomy and dark. i am talking about cells gotten as a result of the disease sickle cell aneamia. many people may not have heard of the disease, its a disease that attacks the redblood cells and they end up being sickle in shape (shaped like a curved C) as opposed to the regular disc or doughnut shaped.it is caused by inherited genes from both parents. the disease is common among blacks, hispanics. the disease is not known to have a cure but there is the bone marrow transplant which is done to ease the disease. carriers of this disease usually experience weekness, chronic long term pain, fatigue and tiredness over time.i will discuss more about sickle cell aneamia on this blog.
