MAISHA YANGU TANGU 1989 HADI LEO
UTOTO
Kama nilivyotangulia kusema awali mimi nimezaliwa miaka 23 iliyopita nikiwa ni mtoto wa mwisho na pekee wa kike katika tumbo la mamangu, katika hali halisi tu hata kama ingalikuwa ni wewe hujawahi kupata mtoto wa kike au wa kiume ni dhahiri kuwa ungepatwa na furaha kubwa sana katika moyo wako si ndivyo? Hivyo ndivyo ilivyokuwa nafsi ya mamangu alipoambiwa amepata mtoto wa kike alifurahi sana na hakuamini mpaka pale aliponitia mikononi mwake, lakini furaha hiyo naweza sema iliingia doa nilipofikisha umri wa miezi mitatu tu baada ya kuanza kuumwa sana bila kujulikana kilichonisumbua, nilikuwa nikivimba mwili na mwili kubadilika rangi na kuwa ya njano lakini kwa kuwa mamangu alikuwa na uzoefu katika hilo japo hakuwa na uhakika ilibidi kunikimbiza hospitali ya taifa muhimbili bila kuchelewa kwa vipimo zaidi na ndipo hapo alipopatwa na huzuni baada ya kugundulika kuwa nina sickle cell anemia ugonjwa ambao nilirithi kutoka kwa baba na mama kwa maana wao wote walikuwa wana virusi vya ugonjwa huo, bila kuchelewa daktari aliamuru niachishwe ziwa la mama haraka iwezekanavyo ili kuzuia ugonjwa kusambaa zaidi na kuniweka katika matibabu ambapo kwa kuwa ugonjwa huo hauna tiba nilipewa dawa za kupunguza maumivu na dawa ziitwazo folic acid kwa ajili ya kuimarisha seli zangu ambapo tangu 1989 hadi leo 2012 bado natumia dawa hizo na itaendelea hivyo kwa maisha yangu yote hadi siku ntakayopumua pumzi yangu ya mwisho.

WHAT MADE ME DO THIS
Actually there is one thing that pushes me and made me to establish somethimg special for the people who have that disease, would you like to know what made me do that? Then join me in this mission

CHILDHOOD
As I said before that I was born 23 years ago, I was a last born and the only girl from my mumy’s womb, in reality even if it was you that you have never gave birth to a boy or a girl it’s very clear that you would be very happy in your heart right? Same goes to my mother when she was told that she has given birth to a baby girl. She was very happy and it was hard to believe until she had me into her arms, but that happiness I can say vanished when I was only three months old after falling sick without knowing what was wrong with me, my body was swallowing and my skin colour was changing to yellow but because my mother had an experience in that situation though she wasn’t sure she had to rush me to muhimbili national hospital without delaying for more tests and that’s when she was full of sadness after kearning that I was diagnosed with sickle cell anemia, the disease that I inherited from both parents because they were both carriers, without delaying the doctor advice my mother not to give me breast milking to prevent the disease spreading futher and put me into treatment, and because the disease has no cure I was given medicines to reduces the pain and the medicine called folic acid for strengthening my cells where by since 1989 till today Im still using them and I will use for my whole life till the day m goin to breath my last breath.
