Daisha Dillon has a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. Battling the pain and disability of sickle cell disease since she was a child, Daisha had long been discouraged from having a baby for fear it would worsen her symptoms. But the team at UConn Health’s New England Sickle Cell Institute and Maternal-Fetal Medicine clinic helped make Daisha’s lifelong dream possible so this Thanksgiving she’ll be celebrating with her 3 month old baby girl.
