Last summer, doctors came up with a diagnosis for Ryan's afflictions: cerebral palsy, a brain affliction with no certain cause and no certain cure. But the Schneiders had saved cells from Ryan's umbilical cord in a special blood bank. Those cells are rich in adult stem cells.
In October, doctors put those cells into Ryan's blood through an IV inserted in the back of his hand.
Still, the Schneiders were almost afraid to hope. They had gambled $10,000 for Ryan.
"We couldn't pull back for too long, because,” Mary recalled, “after the first week, Ryan said his first sentence to us, and we were shocked. And we were even more shocked -- it was about giving him some food, which was even more shocking -- he ate it all and wanted more!"

Because I find it astonishing that such a name could actually be given to a person.
However, if you're the author, I apologize, of course.

Oh, now I get it! You thought I meant that Mr. Totheroh had made up the story, when I meant I thought the name sounded like something out of a hastily-written science fiction TV-series episode.
My comment was utterly irrelevant to the article content, of which I have no reason to doubt the veracity.

Looks like an uppity, Eurotrash spelling of Tutterow, to me.
To: Tax-chick
Exactly...that's just what I thought.
This article again proves adult stem cells vs the other. MSM's reporting on these facts....is just NOT happening. I always ck out CBN...they'll report what the MSM isn't.

You're right - without FR, we wouldn't have access to many of the stories about the successful treatments with adult or umbilical stem cells.

Another champion of adult stem cell therapy is Michael Fumento. (I think he's appeared on CBN.) His
stem cell articles page is a great resource.
