So what kind of stem cells did they use?

Notice how the writer here is VERY careful to not draw any distinctions between the various type of stem cells. They very carefully only refer to them as “Stem Cells”. Pretty much standard operating procedure of the the political Left in the Stem Cell debate. The continually ofuscate between the various types of stem cells.

I smell another “Journalists” rat here.

The article does say adult stem cells from umbilical cords. Since it’s China, I’m still wondering if the umbilical cords came from delivered babies or aborted babies.

Travis had all but one treatment through spinal injections. The last one was administered intravenously. “They like to do one in your bloodstream,” Missy Ashton said. She said the adult stem cells are harvested from umbilical cords and there were 10 million stem cells in each treatment. She was counseled that much of the progress a patient sees comes within six months of having treatments>>>>

sorry, I usually try to bold letter “adult stem cells” when it appears in the article. And, I see your point as many reporters do not tout “adult” stem cell successes and just say “stem cells” in their articles. Mrs. VS brings up a good point, in China you never know from where they get the stem cells, there are just so many abortions, baby killing and organ harvesting going on in China, only God knows what’s going on.
