My family is growing soon! :)
I was asked (by someone I respect) if I intended to save the baby stem cells at birth from the umbilical cord.
Money is not an issue.
I trust this place more than an internet search. Any insight or guidance is appreciated.
God Bless
I know several people that have saved their children’s umbilical cord stem cells. There are no ethical issues, the only issue is scientific. Can the stem cell be kept viable for decades and can they be used to “grow” a new kidney or liver (because they are undifferentiated) should your child need it in the future.
Future developments?
True! In a decade they could have the technology to do it. I would definitely save them if possible.
Thank you
