Texas is far ahead of most states when it comes to research on the use of ethical non-destructive adult stem cells.
See Texas Alliance for Life http://www.texasallianceforlife.org./ and my website and blog, LifeEthics http://lifeethics.org/ The TAL website has several videos involving the personal testimony of Texans who have already benefited from adult stem cell therapy. We have championed cord blood banks that collect stem cells for therapy and research all over our State. (Even in our small town of New Braunfels.)
However, there is a need for care and due diligence, even in the use of these treatments. Blood born diseases - viruses like HIV - are deadly. Without documentation and the scientific method, the rest of the medical and scientific community will continue to discount any results of research.
My latest blog entry describes a new trial for treatment of stroke.

You’re a liar. Why? Don’t you realize that since 2000 new lines of embryonic derived stem cells are being used in non-government funded research programs, and the embryonic stem cell lines are definitely from what were living embryos who were ‘harvested for their body parts, their stem cells. It is not now uncommon for an in vitro fert process to ‘donate’ the unused —what they call the excess— embryos to stem cell harvesting. Why would you lie so blatantly about that reality?
