Sikcell: People living with Sickle Cell

We still Hope

Longest amount of time being crisis free

Hello,
I was just thinking today that I've not had any problems since the year began ,Thank God!

I was wondering what your longest time you've gone w/o a major crisis.

Think mine is 11months w/o being hospitalized.

The longest time I've gone without a major crisis. I would say around 18 months. You had me taking a trip down memory lane with that question. Went back about 10 years. Good question.

For me it's been 2 years and counting without a major crises, thanks to Nicosan. I can't believe I haven't been sick in that long...AMAZING!

The obvious and truest reason is because of the Father.

In addition to His Grace, I learned my limitations, I became wiser and decided to accept things as they really were and not the way I wished they were...no easy feat might I add...and by doing so I actually began to feel better, which made me want to take better care of myself to feel good more than not. I don't know...I just began to do my best to start living my life instead of letting it live me! All credit goes to my mother for helping me to see this.

Again, If it had not been for Him...

I wish I could say the same...I was just released from the hospital over the weekend. I've had a rough year. Been in the hospital every month since Jan. 2009. I hope to get back to the days when I only caught a cold here and there. Glad to know you've been well.

yeah i feel you on that one 22 was a real bad year for me. But i'm claiming this year will be a better year for so far i've been in the hospital 5 time this year but my boyfriend has found this stuff called pro-arginine so ima give that a try so i dont have to go to the hospital as mu he just was like five months out of the hospital would be good. I to live a life without hospital stays.
