Don’t tell John McCain. He will just claim you are lying if you tell him that you can cure cancer without killing fetuses.
He never had any need for those crazy christian types anyways so the fact that it pisses them off just makes it that much sweeter (plus, the media so enjoys him stomping on the social conservative types)

Think about it. Every newborn could have their own umbilical cord blood frozen and stored for future use at very little relative cost.
Obviously no money in that, best keep it quiet.

I think it costs $3000-$5000 and you can do it today.
To: Eagles6
They’d charge a fortune for storage and maintenance, that’s all.

Correct, usually they just throw away the cord and placenta... its an untapped resource!
To: wagglebee
Umbilical cord blood ought to be harvested instead of wasted. The potential for good is huge.

We did it for our son. If I remember correctly it was about $2000 that they financed over 5-6 payments and then it is about $95 a year for storage.
I hope I never need to use it. It does make sense to me to have it just in case.

great thinking — you’re thoughtful parents and citizens.

Here’s an excuse to have more kids. Have a baby, possibly save older siblings and parents and grandparents and strangers ...
an appeal to selfish altruism.

A two year old girl from Suffolk has been cured of a rare form of cancer using genetically matched adult stem cells from a Japanese donor.
Remember this line when the advocates of embryonic stem-cell research begin again to talk about the "hope of a potential of a cure" which is on the way--sure, ten or twenty years down the road, at best.

This is the only type of stem cell research I support as no babies are killed. When my son was born 6 years ago, we banked his cord and it only cost $50 a year, because it was a new procedure.
The same company CryoCell sent me a post card last week about a new procedure in which they are patenting and starting to store menstral lining, as they say its a rich source of stem cells that self renew. This sounded weird to me, but I just filed it away to see what came of the research.
