Confused And Heartbroken: My Son Was Diagnosed With Sickle Cell Anemia (21564 Views)
Babangidapikin: 8:24pm On May 16 |
Although I haven't taking a genotype test for obvious reasons, not withstanding you and your wife did the right thing going for a test and it's not your fault or your wife's fault there was a misdiagnosis. Every one has a part to play in the world, thank God you are not jobless and without a job , just know that this is your cross to bear. I believe they are medical ways now to stop detect SS foetus earlier but that'll be abortion indirectly.

Mdcool26: My Aunt who had Sicle cell just ed she was 78 years may Jesus rest her gentle soul. The native treatment such as the one in Osun state with local herbs and the Hausa one where they drink water in which camel bones have been boiled inside daily is very effective in managing it. The alternative is to be drinking Camel milk but it might not be easy to get Calabar people are also good at managing it They eat bitter kola at least 3 times a week to control it He should avoid eating Chicken bones as it can aggravate it. |

Before I got married, I went for a genotype test, and I was told I was AS. I was surprised because I ed when I was very little, our family doctor told my mother then I was AA. I had to run another test from another state and it was confirmed AA. I really thank God for that because my spouse is AS. Honestly dear, I can only but imagine how sad you're feeling right now with your wife over that little child who did nothing wrong but a mistake from the medical practitioners we have. I can only pray that miracle can still happen for your child for there is no impossibility with our God. Please follow through any useful advice you can get from here with wisdom and understanding. May the Lord heal your family from this trauma.

You see this child wey una don born, that's your nemesis... but a lovely one. He would bring you wealth, but you must give him all the care. Love your wife, you can selectively have healthy babies through Preimplantation genetic diagnosis, but that would require aborting unhealthy ones. Another option is to adopt. If you choose to father outside, fairness would also require your wife mother outside. Pardon my expression... English language is an adopted means of communication. 4 Likes |

There is no big deal in what has happened to you, the only mistake you make is that you are not aware of your genotype before you proceed and you did not take decisive action when you are aware of your genotype. What I will recommend you to do is this 1. As for the child that is SS genotype, you can take him to SS specialist hospital where they can give a drugs that will boost his fetal blood and he may not have most of the complications that are attached to SS child. Note that after the age of 17th years, this remedy may not be that effective again, so you are still within the safe zone 2. For the remaining children you guys will be having together, make sure you use CVS or PNI to avoid further complications. You can reach me at [email protected], if you need for advice . Not a professional advice anyway. 2 Likes |

BlueStripper: The second option is not necessary. The woman cannot go through the stress of taking care of SS child alone. If they can't do the first option, the guy can't also divorce because the wife alone shouldn't be the one to care of the SS child. They should stick together to take care of the SS child and look for money for option 1. |

A very challenging situation indeed.. Most of these diagnostic labs just wr fake reports or results and collect money. They should be sued 😠1 Like |

Mdcool26:Since you love your wife save money and screen your gonad cells before fertilization. That way you can have AA babies. |

BlueStripper: You are evil and you have a mental problem.. The man obviously deceived the woman in order to marry her. So they either divorce and he takes the child or stay married and both of them care for the child if the man plays away match then the woman too should also go and play away match with someone that is AA. 1 Like |

Mdcool26: So sorry to hear about this, Sir. With good nutrition, taking lots of fluids/water and also his recommended prophylactic medications, your son will go far. These are for a start. He needs your . If your wife must have future pregnancies, consult the right specialist before you proceed. This is not the time for blames. If anyone is to be blamed, it is the people with substandard reagents who gave you a wrong result initially. I wish you all the best. 2 Likes |
