We are showing love and support to members of the Thalassemia community as they get ready to observe International Thalassaemia Day tomorrow, May 8th.
International Thalassaemia Day is devoted to raising awareness about this severe blood disease and the need for more blood donations.
Executive Member of the Society of Inherited and Severe Blood Disorders of Trinidad and Tobago Limited, Kieron Blackman, and Parent/Caregiver/Executive Member Jason Brathwaite, join us to discuss aspects of this disease, treatment options, and they also highlight a blood drive set to take place at the Blood Bank in Port of Spain on Saturday May 11th.
