Another Brave Soul Off to China for Stem Cell Treatment

Are you or a loved one interested in receiving stem cell treatment? For free information, please fill out our treatment form or email me don@repairstemcells.org and just put TREATMENT in the subject box and the MEDICAL CONDITION in the message.
I MEAN A BRAVE SOUL IN THE BEST POSSIBLE CONTEXT:

David Maynard knows it sounds crazy.

But crazy to him is the thought of living another year with the injury that has dogged him for nearly a decade.

Five surgeries, and still no relief from the numbness in his right leg that limits his mobility. And perhaps worse, no answers.

The Quincy resident is preparing to go to China to undergo cutting-edge surgery not available in the United States because it is regarded as risky. Doctors there will inject stem cells from an umbilical cord into Maynard's spine.

WHY DOES HE HAVE TO GO ALL THE WAY TO CHINA TO GET STEM CELL TREATMENT WITH CORD BLOOD STEM CELLS (NOT EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS) ?

Maynard said. “I'm going over for the treatment, and I wouldn't be going over there if they offered it here.

I SEE.  GO ON MR. MAYNARD:

Maynard knows the therapy isn't a panacea he expects months of physical therapy after undergoing the surgery.

But he has more hope now than in he's had nine years, time spent visiting doctor after doctor, getting frustrated by a lack of direction and support.

“I think some doctors have gotten to the point where they practice what I call conveyor belt medicine, Maynard said. “They just keep pushing you through to the next test, the next surgery.

NEW HOPE.  ADULT STEM CELL THERAPY IS NOT ONLY GIVING PATIENTS WITH PREVIOUSLY INCURABLE CONDITIONS HOPE, IN MANY CASES (LIKE KADI IN THE PREVIOUS POST BELOW)  IT IS GIVING THEM A NEW LIFE.
