He was very active and engaged even while dealing with the effects of Sickle Cell Disease. According to Darius, his challenges with Sickle Cell inspired him to help children living with the disease by wanting to provide medical care, moral support to parents and other family members, and lastly, by bringing awareness to the community through education. He believes sharing with other young people that Sickle Cell is not a death sentence but a LIFE SENTENCE has made a difference.
