Governor Shri Mangubhai Patel said that for a healthy generation, matching sickle cell genetic counseling cards is more important than matching the horoscopes before marriage, because if sickle cell patients and carriers marry each other, their children will suffer from sickle cell disease. Even if both husband and wife are carriers of this disease, there is a high possibility that their future children will be affected by sickle cell. Governor Shri Patel advised sickle cell anemia patients to take special care of their diet and eat only home-cooked food. He said that such people should include a regular nutritious diet, yoga, and exercise in their daily routine.
