Kree is only 6 years old, the only illness she has ever had was a bad cold when she was 3, we woke up one saturday & she didn't have a mark on her, by lunch time she had 32 major bruises all over her, she has always bruised easily but we put it down to her tom boy ways, climbing trees, trying to play football etc with her older sister, but to go from not a mark to 32 deep purple bruises of different sizes all over, I admit I paniced & thought the worst (leaukeamia?), we took her to an after hours Dr who ordered urgent blood tests, the results came back showing my baby has Thallasimia minor ~ I don't think I can even spell it, any info, advice would be very welcomed. I am in fear for her future, having children etc, & not to forget anemia, the Dr's won't tell us what to expect, thank you in advance for any help any one can provide.
