My Learning:

This is a recording of my research and learning about Stem Cell Research. At this point I am for Stem Cell Research and am interested in knowing more about all aspects of this controversy. Is stem cell research moral? Should we be saving our children's umbilical cords? Are there laws for and against these acts? Are there people who can help in the political world? Should there be?

This is what I plan to find out. I'm Skyler, follow me.

Life Saving

This is a great article about saving the cord blood of a new born. Luckily this couple had a second child with cord blood to save that help their oldest child. It makes me think that for my next child we should save their cord blood, just in case. With all the stories I hear today of children getting ill, I'd rather have it and not needed than need it and not have it.

  1. My wife and I saved our daughter's cord blood because my wife has high risk pregnancies. She is pregnant with our second child and has had some complications, so we really won't know if we need the blood until the baby is born. It makes me feel better knowing that it is there.

  2. Thanks for sharing this Danny. I think this is something that many go through and many should think about saving the cord blood, "just in case."
