Managing Sickle Cell Pain: Part I
In support of Sickle Cell Awareness Month, Provokin' Dialogue will be doing a two-part episode dedicated to the struggles of managing sickle cell pain.
Part 1 begins with R.E.M.E. discussing his experience managing sickle cell disease and revealing the many side effects of the drugs he's used to cope with sickle cell pain. Shaquan reflects on the memories of R.E.M.E in the hospital and is left surprised by an untold story R.E.M.E has never shared with him.
