My oldest child has sickle cell anemia and has to be transfused every two weeks.We have to travel two and a half hours away from home for these appointments.My other children are ages:11,4,2,and 1.My oldest is 16 years old.She had a stroke at the age of six and since then she has had to undergo transfusions bi-weekly because of iron overloads and sickle cell crisis!We live in a very small rural area and they don't offer much assistance for poor families as myself.Every Christmas for the past few years they only give her a board game and a boy's remote car.It's so hard to provide for them but I'm doing the best I can because God gave them to me and I will never turn my back on them but I must be honest it gets very hard at times because I can't do things as I would like or should.So I ask if anyone knows of any programs or sponsors please share so my childrn can have a joyous Christmas! Thank You All
