People... This is the strongest woman I know and she needs your help handle the situation life has presented to her. Please give us as much information as you can on pros and cons of the hydroxyurea treatment.

Asma, your child is an excellent candidate for hydroxyurea.

Please teach the child at a young age to eat well. She should follow a nutritious diet. Junk foods should be avoided. Fresh fruit and vegetables are very important.

Hi,

Add Wheat grass tablets or juice with hydrea.
