Tito Oye a writer who helps others realise that Sickle cell doesn’t need to define their identity, shared:
“I started publicly sharing my health journey with a blog, although at the time it was an anonymous one. Not many people around me at the time even knew I had sickle cell disease. Eventually, as I got older and more friends learned about my health, they encouraged me to more actively share my story and help raise awareness.
Initially, I was pretty anxious about sharing, but the encouragement I received helped convince me to get started. I haven’t looked back since.
Documenting my journey has been one of the most meaningful things I have done, and I have no regrets about it. To anyone who might be reading this and thinking about doing the same, take this as a positive sign”
To every warrior out their wanting to share their story, do not hesitate. Someone is waiting to hear your story.
