Hi guys, my name is Grace. I am a wife and mother, and I work as a full-time blogger. I am also living with sickle cell disease.

Balancing motherhood and health

We all know sickle cell is a disease that tends to be unpredictable. So in this video, I am sharing 5 tips for mothers with sickle cell disease. These tips are things that I do that help me balance my sickle cell and motherhood.

 

Tips on finding balance:

  • Don't compare yourself to other mothers
  • Relish in the good days
  • Don't hide your disease from your kid
  • Prioritize your health
  • Have a tribe or support system

Do you have any tips or experiences with dating that you'd like to share?
