Sabrina's Story

Sabrina was seven years old when her parents first noticed something was wrong. She had been having headaches and seemed unusually tired. A visit to the local clinic revealed she had Sickle Cell Disease.

Thanks to a community screening programme supported by the Sabrina Foundation, Sabrina received early intervention. Today, she is ten years old, attends school regularly, and dreams of becoming a doctor.

Her mother says: “We did not know what sickle cell was. Now we know the warning signs. That knowledge may have saved Sabrina’s life.”
