I've been cured of Sickle-Cell Anemia
Jesus, Thank You for taking enviably good care of me.
Since sometime after a health assessment in May of 2023, I've been Sickle-Cell-negative. But before that point, I lived a torturously life of chronic, blood-curdling pain.
All due to a condition that would have bled into every facet of my life and held my enjoyment of it ransom. "Life experience? What life experience?"
Hence, much like a boy who would have fallen into a coma at age 15 and not woken up until his 30s were coming to a close, I am the least relatable human being that most people will ever meet. Often, I can't even relate to myself.
So when I'd had enough—and given up on merely existing—you held on for me, my Lord.
And now I look forward to revisiting every desirable opportunity I missed out on, and making the absolute most of 'em all... As a 41-yr-old, going on 16.
