Thalassemia
In the section regarding pathophysiology I changed the phrase "Thus, in a normal person..." to "Thus in a healthy person". This is to remove the microagression in the original phrase, it suggests that you are somehow "less normal" or possible "less of a person" for having the disease which is not true. Its better in the context of the text to compare indiviuals in regards to what we concider healthy or not. And not what we think is more or less superior.
