Sickle Cell Anemia Spot#2

from Here's To Veterans by Larry Norman

/

lyrics

[Spoken]

Larry Norman will be back with another new song, but earlier I was talking about sickle cell anemia, painful, sometimes fatal disease that attacks generation after generation of blacks. As I mentioned earlier, there are some known symptoms like persistent back pain or aching joints of the legs and arms. Some victims suffer from pain and fever. This lowers resistance to other infections and can indirectly cause death

A blood test is all you need to find out if you have sickle cell anemia. This is especially important before you begin raising a family, because if you carry the trait your children will probably inherit the disease from you. The VA program includes counselling to parents who have the sickle cell trait. If you're a black veteran, go to your nearest Veterans Administration hospital or out patient clinic for an examination soon

Now here's Larry Norman
