The physical recovery process for some disease treatments can be accompanied by an emotionally complex and unique mental health journey. Many struggle with social and emotional issues like isolation, survivor’s guilt or identity crises. Listen to Sickle Cell Warrior Wunmi Bakare as she describes the feelings she experienced when she made the decision to undergo an allogeneic stem cell transplant for her #SickleCellDisease. As her journey continues, Wunmi has learned to grow from the experience, inspiring resilience in those around her.
