She told me she is among the lucky few SS that is living a good life. She told me she has never been hospitalized for any pain crises,she has only been hospitalized twice in her life Which was due to malaria,and I know she is not lying. She said her health keeps improving by the years That's she is getting more attentive, and It's only back pain crises she do have 3 times a month of recent and by taking her medications and getting a massage the pains would go after some few hours, no other sickle cellhours disease complications So that makes her lucky.
But my fear now is that will she live long? Does being a lucky SS guarantee long life (up to 70 years) I can't stand losing someone I love after years of being together in marriage, That's my only fear and am facing a serious dilemma, I just want to know,will she live long?

Hello Hotice: I'm sorry you are facing this dilemma. Please pardon my lack of knowledge, but I do not know the meanings of SS, AA, & AS... can you clarify? From what you wrote, it sounds as though the girl you love only has some back pain at the present time, and it is controlled through the use of medications & massage.
Assuming this girl's back pain is from something like strained muscles or a bulged disc in her back, this is certainly nothing that would be life threatening. I'm now in my mid 60's & I've struggled with pain in my low back most of my life. It's just something one learns to live with & work around.
Beyond that, you know, when we fall in love with someone, we really can never be certain how long that person will live. We hope to grow old together. But accidents, disease, and other things can ruin our plans. We can only hope the person we fall in love with, and we ourselves, have the long lives we hope for, and appreciate whatever time we do have together.
