Breaking Silence: Living With Sickle Cell Anemia
This powerful book gives you a behind the scenes look at what it’s like to live with the chronic illness, Sickle Cell Anemia. Diagnosed at the tender age of two James faced many daily obstacles and challenges because of his condition but stayed determined not to let it define him. Out of the fear of being judged and looked upon negatively by others, James worked diligently to keep his health a secret and chose never to discuss it openly with anyone. Now with his first published book Breaking Silence: Living With Sickle Cell Anemia, he’s done the unthinkable by opening up and revealing all about his illness.
