Stem Cells Taken From A Babys Cord
Stem Cells.. An increasing number of parents are storing stem cells from their baby's cord. Hopefully these will not be needed, but if your child develops leukaemia or any other disease requiring a bone marrow transplant, stem cells could save his life. What Are Stem Cells? What Are They Used For? Any Other Uses? So Why Isn't It Routinely Collected? The UK's Department of Health has also given full accreditation to Future Health Technologies, a privately run company that will, for a price, store cord blood for 25 years. Future Health provide the kit to collect the blood at the birth, although you will need the co-operation of the medical staff. In the USA, cord blood bank Cord Blood Registry has already stored more than 250,000 vials of stem cells. Of course you hope the cord blood will never be required, but if it is, for the price of a holiday you could save the life of your child. For further research, type 'cord blood' in a search engine. ****************************************************************
