Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well. September is Sickle Cell Awareness Month and DARI, a
leader in the treatment of sickle cell disease, has announced
a collaboration with our very own ker Junior Spates. Congratulations, Kere,
and DARI is asking you and has joined with you
so you can share your personal experience with the use

(00:21):
of Indari to treat your sickle cell disease or SCD,
and that is really amazing, Junior, congratulation. This is gonna
be great and Dari's collaboration with Junior helps to destigmatize
sickle cell disease and spread the word about Indari, and
dari's chairman and CEO stated, we admire and appreciate mister

(00:43):
Spate's courage and living with this disease and publicly sharing
his experiences, and we would like to extend our public
thanks to Junior, mister Harvey and the co host of
the Steve Harvey Morning Show for their cooperation. So, Junior,
I got to ask you what inspired you to partner
with and do you know this is a company and
this drug has really been helping me with my sickle

(01:05):
cell disease. Man, I feel great. My energies up now,
y'all have noticed I have not been in the hospital
for over sixteen months. Yeah, so you know. And the
thing about it is too that I want other patients
with sickle cell to get on board with this because
this is really a game changer for sickle cell. It's
the first drug that's been approved by the FDA in

(01:26):
twenty five years for treatment in sickle cell. When they
take a more holistic approach. This is not a drug
like that, It's more of an amino acid. This is
something your body already makes. I want to introduce people
with sickle cell to the doctors who are behind this,
the companies that are getting this thing out, and also
that we're going to create create a community, a community

(01:46):
of people not just to help you with the sickle cell,
but with the mental issues with sickle cell. We're gonna
be having town halls. I'm coming from city to city
to sit down and talk with patients, get their story
so we can just change the way this whole thing
for sickle cell is because no longer do you have
to suffer in silence. Man. Yeah, there's help out. Just
at your first town home meeting and it was great,

(02:10):
and I want to come city city sit down, introduce
you to these doctors introduce you to this company that
is one hundred percent behind Sickle Celle, and that's what
we're gonna be doing. I want to thank doctor Nahara, George, uh,
doctor A Bear. Man. We're gonna come out here and
we just come straight to you in your community, man,
and get this thing moving. So I'm excited about being

(02:31):
on in Dari and I'm excited to get other people
in on Darty. Man. This is gonna be great. So
this is a really game changing for the Sickle sale community.
It really, it really is. Yeah, So I'm excited man, man,
I'm congratulation. Yeah, thank you so much. Yeah, we're just
just happy that you've been so healthy of late, you know. Yeah,
