Tim Explains Sickle Cell AnaemiaTim's parents both have Sickle Cell trait. This means that they are both healthy carriers and they are not ill. If you are a Sickle Cell carrier you might not know it because it does not make you ill. But if Mum and Dad are carriers then they can pass it on to you. The doctor can do a special blood test to find out if you are a carrier. |
