To kick off National Sickle Cell Awareness Month, it is our honor to share Marvin Banks' life journey of living beyond the limits of sickle cell disease. Diagnosed with sickle cell disease at just two years old, Marvin Banks has faced immense challenges. From the loss of his twin sister to sickle cell disease, to navigating a health care system that often didn’t understand his pain, Marvin’s story is a testament to resilience. “Sickle cell disease is not a joke,” Marvin says. His advice? "Listen to your patient." Now 54, Marvin shares his journey to inspire others and advocate for better care. https://lnkd.in/gjtjAmu6

Clinicians: We know that you put your patients' overall health and safety first. If you prescribe opioids for pain, consider also prescribing naloxone. Naloxone is a lifesaving medication that can reverse an opioid overdose when given in time. On this Overdose Awareness Day (Aug. 31), CDC resources can help you promote the benefits of naloxone, reduce stigma associated with its use, and get it in the hands of those who need it most: https://bit.ly/3WVLs6S
