Child complaining about pain on her body
My daughter is currently 2yrs old will be 3 in October. My child is trait carrier of the sickle cell dease. She has non stop each day crying saying my hand hurts, my leg, my shoulder and etc. I read up on it. But I wanted to know is there a chance she could still get the dease later on in life. If so what percentage would u say ?
