Wondering where I’ve been this Sickle Cell Awareness Month… my advocacy looks a little different this year. No events, just soaking up every beautiful moment with my miracle baby.. who is now a toddler 🥹 I’m resting in the fact that advocacy works. If I hadn’t fought for a cure, I wouldn’t have become the first adult in Western Canada to be cured of sickle cell disease through a stem cell transplant, and I wouldn’t have opened the door for so many other patients to find their cure. I’m so thankful for the favour I’ve seen in my life. There’s still so much work to do, but for now, I’m enjoying everything that advocating for myself has brought me.💕 #SickleCellAwarenessMonth #SickleCellWarrior #StemCellTransplant #ChronicIllness #PatientAdvocate

The Browns ❤️ . Yesterday was my last day of maternity leave and I’m so emotional. The past 16 months with our sweet girl has been nothing sort of a dream. It has been chaotic, full of surprises but most of all full of a love and joy I can’t even explain. I’m going to miss hanging out with my mini me all day🥹 so thankful to God for this season and ready to take on the next 💕 . #maternityleave #backtowork #blacklove #lifepoststemcelltransplant

I don’t even know where to begin. 🥹 There was a time I wasn’t sure I’d ever become a nurse. I was actually discouraged from pursuing nursing, told that the long hours and physical demands could be devastating for a body already fighting sickle cell disease. . But I am so grateful for the people who didn’t give up on me. The ones who believed in me when I couldn’t fully believe in myself and kept pushing me every step of the way. . This weekend I was honoured with Nurse of the Year at the Afro Diaspora Nurses Connect 3rd Annual Nurses Week Celebration & Awards and I am still in my feelings. 🏆 . To @sandy_boujee and the @afrodiasporanursesconnect family — thank you for this incredible space. To my husband @kofintiamoah_ my constant, my safe place, my everything. 💕 . This one is for every nurse who has ever felt unseen or was ever told they couldn’t. Keep showing up. 💕
