Is it possible for white people to have Sickle Cell Anemia?
There is a history Sickle Cell Anemia in my family.
However, there are no links to the black community that is apparent in recent history?
Is it possible that it could skip many generations?
I am just not sure what to think now. I have lots of questions to ask and would like to be pointed in the right direction for information
