The new treatment is the latest in a long string of hundreds of successes in the science of stem cell treatments that use mature cells rather than embryonic stem cells. Embryonic stem cell treatments, which destroy a human life, have never been proven effective in any medical treatment to date. And that is why the mainstream media will NEVER report this.

A 35 year old friend had leukemia. They gave him his brothers’ cells. It worked. He has curly hair now....like his brother.

For all the FR Bush-bashers, just remember how he was continually ridiculed for being anti-science because of his stance on embryonic stem cell research.
The man at least needs to get the credit he deserves.

My father in law was successfully treated and cured of Mantel cell Lymphoma using his own blood stem cells.
Praise God!

I’ve seen news of treatments for eye diseases that use embryonic stem cells, however the stem cell comes from an embryo with eight cells and removing one cell does not kill it.

He is a very thoughtful, thorough, moral person, completely unlike what is in the White House now.

Link no workee.
My wife died at 28 from breast cancer and I follow cancer advances very close. I have always believed the cure would be based on our body’s natural system - i.e. stem cells in cord blood.
I am waiting for Imam Obozo to loudly denounce his previous stance on the slaughter of life...... (cue crickets...)

The ONLY reason the media continues to push embryonic stem cell research is because they believe it creates a safeguard for abortion.
The irony is that there has NEVER been a ban on private corporations spending their own money on embryonic stem cell research, but they DON'T even though they DO spend billions on adult stem cell research.

Yes. The media are so desperate to legitimize abortions that they will predictably cover this up. And leftist governments will refuse to fund it.
Never mind that many lives could be saved, patients like this girl as well as babies. That doesn’t matter to those ideologues. Not in the least.

And, you can get a lot more stem cells from an umbilical cord than you can from an embryo.

Excellent news! I wonder how one goes about saving their child’s umbilical cord. The cost. Where it’s kept, etc. If this is doable for people financially, it sure seems a great idea.

As far as I know, it's a fairly simple process and the cells can be saved for just a few thousand dollars (most of the cost is for long-term storage).

I think it runs about $5000.00 initially and about $1000.00/yr after that .
