Autism Improved After Stem Cell Therapy

A Maine boy with Autism is already seeing improvements after having to travel abroad for stem cell therapy using adult stem cells.  Kenneth Kelley, age 9  of Glenburn, Maine went to Costa Rica 6 weeks ago and has seen his quality of life get better in that short time span thanks to the stem cell treatment.

Adult Stem Cells From Cord Blood

While in Costa Rica, Kenneth had adult stem cells derived from cord blood implanted.  The doctors told Kenneth's parents that improvements usually take 2-6 months, but already after 6 weeks, the parents can see the different the stem cell treatment has made.

From the stem cell article:


"Immediately when we were in Costa Rica, he just started talking a lot more. His vocabulary is probably 20 percent more conversation. He started going up to strangers and talking to them."

The Kelley family had to go to Costa Rica for the procedure because it's not done in the United States.

Marty is happy they made the trip.

"We know this is going to work for him. And we are 100 percent confident we'll be going back to Costa Rica in January. This is what he needs and because done so well in hyperbaric oxygen chamber, we know this is going to be good for us."

Following in the footsteps of Stem Cell Pioneers

Kenneth followed in the footsteps of Matthew Faiella, a young boy with autism approximately the same age as Kenneth who also along with his loving parents, traveled to Costa Rica for the stem cell research using adult stem cells.  

Unanswered Letter To Obama

We also have another story about Lauren Dicorcia, a 10 year old girl with autism, who also improved tremendously after receiving adult stem cells abroad.  Lauren's mother Judy, wrote a letter to Obama asking why isn't a safe ethical treatment like adult stem cell therapy available in the United States.  I don't think Obama has answered her yet as adult stem cells still aren't available to Americans thus forcing families to go out of the country to seek out improvements in their quality of life.   

Embryonic Stem Cell Research- Over Hyped, Giving Us Nothing But Tumors and Cysts

While the accomplishments of adult stem cells keep piling up, Americans and the FDA are still obsessed with embryonic stem cell research which makes for nice press releases and hype, but hasn't delivered anything other than tumors and cysts. 

Also of note:
Kenneth's parents keep a Autism Blog
And Matthew Faiella and his loving parents keep a fantastic stem cell autism blog too.
