Rationale:
1. Adequate hydration will help prevent further sequestration and crisis.
2. A high-protein diet is not necessary; a well balanced diet should be promoted.
3. Normal activities are not restricted.
4. Rapid weaning is not necessary; reduction of pain medication should proceed at a rate dictated by the child's pain.
