MAPILLAR:

“When we heard about Oxbryta and were discussing it with her doctor…for us as a family, that is something we were really interested in seeing how Oxbryta could help Tully increase her hemoglobin level because her hemoglobin tends to run a little low. And so just the increase in hemoglobin and helping to make her body have more red blood cells…we were really interested in that outcome for Tully.”

TULLY:

“I went for my first appointment after starting my Oxbryta journey; I realized that my hemoglobin, it rose.”

TULLY:

“That made me very, very proud because I was very consistent with my medicine.”

MAPILLAR:

“I’m so proud of her. She understands what this medicine is doing for her.”

MAPILLAR:

“Her hemoglobin was now higher than it was. So that was pretty exciting.”

MAPILLAR:

“And her bilirubin it decreased. We were just excited for the increase in hemoglobin, and honestly the bilirubin is an icing on the cake.”

TULLY:

“I realized that some days I do need to rest and I do need to take a break every now and then just to catch my breath.”
