Female: I'm Keisha and this is MY Sickle Cell Story. I have sickle cell disease. When I was a child, my mother always took me to the doctor for check ups to make sure I was OK. When I got on my own, I don't know what happened. I just stopped going. My advice to everyone who has sickle cell disease? Keep going to your health care provider for regular checkups. I wish I had.

Voiceover (different voice): Sickle Cell is a painful blood disease that can affect anyone of ANY race. Find out it you carry the trait. You can get a free test at your nearby health department or your sickle cell community program. It's fast and simple.
