Sickle cell disease is a group of disorders that affects molecule in red blood cells (hemoglobin) that delivers oxygen to cells throughout the body. Person with this disorder have typical hemoglobin molecules called hemoglobin S, which can distort red blood cells into a sickle, or crescent, shape.
how does sickle cell anemia affect mentally and emotionally

Yes. It is a genetic disease passed by both parents with the sickle cell trait and it is very painful for the person who has it. They eventually, die of it.
they get the disease
it is safe to marry a person with sickle cell, provided that you are not a career of the trait.

I don't know the exact person who invented the sickle . The Sumerian Civilization came up with the first sickle.
The person is homozygous for the trait
A person with one sickle cell is a "carrier". This means that they have the dormant cell in their genetic composition, and if combined with another with the "carrier" gene, they run the high risk on concieving a child with the blood disease-one who has two sickle cells. A person with two sickle cells, has the sickle cell disease and are carriers(The gene is not dormant but active). Hope this simplifies and explains it for you.
Just one incorrect amino acid prevents protein from functioning properly in sickle cell anemia.
The person is homozygous for the trait
Malaria is common in topical ad subtropical zones. The malaria has selected the people with sickle cell anaemia. Although person with sickle cell anemia can have malaria, the carrier, or the person with sickle cell trait is resistant to malaria.
Thalassemia is a genetic disorder as a result of an imbalance in the hemoglobin. In sickle cell, also a genetic disorder, the mutation cause a crescent shaped molecule.

A person can only inherit sickle-cell genes if some of their ancestors came from certain regions in Africa where the inhabitants carry sickle-cell genes. A person with one sickle-cell gene has sickle-cell trait, a milder problem. If both father and mother pass on sickle-cell genes, the child, with two genes, will have sickle-cell disease.
