Today, I introduce to you Karol LaBarrie, a normal looking 7 year old from Brooklyn, New York. However, his life has been anything but normal after being stricken with Sickle Cell Anemia when he was 6 weeks old. And he started feeling the sickle cell symptoms of swelling and pain when he was 3 months old. All in all, he was hospitalized about 40 times.
However, his mother had a baby in 2004 and wisely saved the umbilical cord stem cells. In 2006, Karol received cord blood stem cells from his brother Kequan. And guess what happened next:
"If you look in his blood, there's no evidence, when you test it, it's all his brother's blood,
so he is completely cured at this point," said Dr. Monica Bhatia.
His story is just one example. (
And you can search this website for 100's of other examples- Don)
"There are, I believe, close to a hundred diseases that are treatable with stem cell transplantation today. Principally cancers and inherited diseases such as metabolic abnormalities, inherited anemias, acquired and inherited immune abnormalities," noted Dr. Robert Hariri of LifebankUSA. "We believe in the very near future in broader applications like treating neurologic injury, cardiac injury and so on."
Ahh- another happy adult stem cell story
