According to the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), it is estimated that approximately 100,000 Americans are affected by Sickle Cell Disease, and it occurs in 1 out of every 365 African-American births. Sickle cell disease is a genetic disorder that affects hemoglobin, the protein that delivers oxygen within the body. Unhealthy red blood cells mediate abnormal blood flow that can lead to complications, including stroke, infections, and pain.
