Today I’d like to share how I mentally dominated my haemophilia by the age of 14. I was in the 7th grade, my mom went to get groceries and I was about to go to school. I noticed my knee was getting progressively swollen and I needed treatment asap. I was all by myself at home, and I had nobody close by to help me inject. So, I sat down, took some deep breaths, prepared my factor, recalled what the nurses did when they injected me and just did it. It all went great and I was so happy. Time passed and I became way more independent, I was confident, my mom started to allow me to enjoy more of life, as I wasn’t in a constant danger anymore. A few years passed, I finished high-school and I decided that it’s time, at the age of 19, to go to uni to a different city. I now am a second year law student, working towards becoming a prosecutor. All of this would have not been possible if I didn’t have the courage to inject myself at that specific time.
