As a mother of three daughters living with sickle cell disease, I know how much can stand between a family and the care they need.

Who will help coordinate the appointments? How will we get there? Can we afford to miss work? Where will we stay if treatment takes us far from home? Who can we call when we have done everything asked of us and still cannot move forward? These are questions families carry every day. They deserve answers and practical support. Through MTS Sickle Cell Foundation, I bring those realities into every conversation about access. When we celebrate a new treatment, a coverage decision, or a policy change, we must also follow through on what it takes for families to benefit. I want progress to reach our homes, our hospital rooms, and our everyday lives. That is the work I will keep showing up for. ❤️ #SickleCell #AccessToCare #HealthEquity #PatientAdvocacy #MTSSickleCellFoundation
