For those with sickle cell, African-American donors are ideal.
Byline: Kawanza L. Griffin
MILWAUKEE _ Each morning, Bernadette Small would gently lean over the bed to awaken her son for day care.
And each morning he would look up at his mother and greet her with a smile.
But one day, her 4-year-old didn't move when Small called his name.
She knew something was wrong.
"The Lord spoke to me and told me to lift his arm," said Small, of Milwaukee. "I did and it just flopped back down."
Trevon Small had suffered a Tstroke, a major complication of sickle cell disease, while he slept. He started to drool as she called the paramedics.
