According to a post made by a user, @aaclown.backup, via the popular social media platform TikTok, the 41-year-old woman living with sickle cell was interviewed as she shared her experience.

She spoke in her native language, Yoruba, explaining that her hand has been affected as a result of her sickle cell condition and revealed that she can't stretch it.

She mentioned that she can't stretch her hand and if something falls, she can't bend down to pick it up, hence needing help from others.

When she calls on people, some refuse to help, but only those who understand her condition offer assistance.

Her statement in part:

"I have faith I'll marry and have kids but what's on my mind at the moment, when I have good health I'll know what I want to do in life."
"But for an individual who isn't healthy and isn't making progress. If something falls now, I can't take it. If I ask someone to help me pick it, the problem would be told to not help me and what they said is true because many people have landed in bad places after rendering help."
