I saw a program on tv that followed a quad to China for his stem cell surgery.

In the story many others have flocked to China includng kids w/parents hoping to cure their Cerebral Palsy (as my son who has lived with for 27yrs).

Well the story ended exposing a huge fraud.
Yes the stem cell surgery was done but there was no significant improvements just a whole lot of dissapointed people.

So number one, my son will not use fetal stem cells for his own health care and two I have to see these cases with my own eyes and lots of them before I get any hopes of a cure.

Besides 27yrs later we have put our hope into eternal life.
The odds are better IMO.

My middle daughter has CP, but we've been blessed. She walks with a cane and teaches at the same college where I teach. We've met with other parents who have children with significantly worse involvement. She's had something like eleven surgeries on her legs. There's nothing quite like sitting in the waiting room during surgery.

You don't talk about the level of your son's involvement, but I suspect it's more involved than my daughter's. Prayers for you and yours. I haven't walked your path, but have been close enough to know it's tough.
