Help. please.
Dear Andy,
The pain of this disease is terrible. So, I appreciate your comment because it will allow everyone one who reads this website to know how serious this is and how important our discovery is. We are working as fast as or funding allows. I ask you not to give up. I ask you to find strength in the hope that this cure represents. Please send me an email to robert.broyles@sicklecellcurefoundation.org and tell me where you are located, and tell me more about whatever treatment you are receiving. I send you my very best wishes for now.

Hello,

I understand that everyone who has SCD like myself is relatively desperate for the cure. I would like to know what steps I can take in order to get this cure as an individual living in Canada, Ontario.
I have tried sending an email to robert.broyles@sicklecellcurefoundation.org it unfortunately did not work.
Looking forward to your response. Thank you.
Regards,
Yaw.
Dear Yaw,
The main step you can take to make the cure available is to become a vocal advocate for everyone donating to SCCF through our website or by mail to The Sickle Cell Cure Foundation, 601 NW 13th Street, Oklahoma City, OK 73103 U.S.A. I appreciate the heads-up about the email not working. We have taken steps to correct that. Please try again. If it still does not work, please email me at robert-broyles@ouhsc.edu. Thannks very much for your interest and help in getting a universal cure for this disease available to all.
Sincerely,

u say there is a cure for scd. i believe so much in God and I know that with him all things are possible. pls just like everyother person wants to know, how do we go about getting this cure
Our treatment is being tested in animal trials now, starting this month, thanks to the donations that we have received. Next year, in 2011, we hope to start human clinical trials. If all the trials are good, as we expect, we have a plan to distribute the treatment around the world at a price almost everyone can afford.

Dear, Broyles
Thank you for the promising news about SC D cure. A few day we tested our first born who is six months and found out that she has the disease i was so shaken to almost failing to eat . A fee being talked about will be in dollars and yet a person like myself earn below $5 a day.people in Africa will almost have limited chance to access that, therefore will there be some sponsors for some of us who are poor and want our children to servive more especially in Uganda where i come from?
Thank you so much
Norman
Dear Norman,
I sympathize with you and your six-month-old daughter who has been diagnosed with sickle cell disease (SCD). And I feel a great deal of empathy for you and all of those in Uganda and other parts of Africa who worry about the cost of our cure for SCD. In our plan for distributing this treatment, we have kept the cost very low, about $120 per year (4 treatments of $30 each) or about $0.33 per day, which amounts to a little over $2 a week. That is about 10% of your total income if you had to pay it all. But, it is also in our plan to get other NGO non-profits and also governments to help pay these costs. Therefore, my hope is that this treatment will cost you very little. The costs and how they will be distributed world-wide may be found in our Business Plan (e.g., BP Abridged 08-19-08.pdf, page vi) under the Corporate Partners tab on the Home page of this website. The costs in Africa will be greatly reduced by subsidies from sales in Europe, North America, and elsewhere. The goal is to make this treatment universally available and universally affordable.
All the best to you and your daughter,
Robert H.Broyles, Ph.D.
