Ten years ago we decided to save our daughter's cord blood stem cells. Our physicians at that time were aware of this procedure but freely admitted that they had never done this before, not even for one of their patients. At this time, my husband’s older sister had just been diagnosed with Leukemia according to the information we received Leukemia was a disease that could be treated with using stem cells. We felt that the important power of our daughters stem cells might offer her protection from this disease and others. One year ago our daughter was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes. Juvenile diabetes is also known as type 1 or insulin dependent diabetes. At the age of 10 she pricks her finger up to six times a day and receives 4 insulin injections at an attempt to monitor and treat this horrible disease. We are now looking forward to using her stem cells to help eradicate this illness. I am thankful everyday that we saved her stem cells from her cord blood.
When she was diagnosed with diabetes all of her physicians stated that it was probably a wise decision to have saved her cord blood cells, but they did not think anything was being done in conjunction with cord blood stem cells and diabetes. Upon further research we discovered that there are studies underway to determine the best way to use of her cord cells to hopefully reverse this disease. Realizing that most expectant parents have no idea about the research and medical breakthroughs with cord blood stem cells, we started our company with the goal of providing an educational resource for expectant families and their physicians to draw upon. We want every expectant parent to know the facts about the importance of cord blood and all the medical advancements in this field. We wanted to allow interested parties to have someone locally to discuss the importance of this decision and answer all of their questions and to hopefully provide guidance in this decision making process. Most importantly to allow you to participate in this process at the best pricing possible.
Because of our commitment to this goal we have been able to achieve lower pricing for individuals who make this all important decision to “Ensure Their Baby’s Future” by saving their cord blood.
