    To the parents with sickle cell, how did you explain your health to your children?

    This may be a difficult conversation to have and it may take a while for the child to understand it.

    I would love to hear how your experience went.

    yes Tito, its very hard from kids to understand the situation in small age, especially when they request from you to play a physicals games with them, you need to explain again and again, at the end my kids said to my { baba why you are always tired and have pain} hehehehe, but by the time they close to understand the situation, so they know that I can’t play hard games with them, i think just need little more time to got the children understand the situation, its only about time.
