In what seems to be a continuing trend, Americans are seeking out stem cell research and treatment abroad because it isn't available in the United States. Chuck Melton, of Hoyleton, Illinois was the latest to leave the United States in search of the stem cell treatment that would improve his quality of life. It worked so well that Chuck is trying to raise money to return to China for more Adult Stem Cells. Chuck who was paralyzed in a diving accident in 2002 went to China in January 2007 to try and improve his spinal cord injury. Chuck said "
I found out that China had been doing [stem cell treatment] for a number of years and experimenting with treatments and results. So I contacted [people in China] and talked to doctors and patients and got a lot of great feedback from it.” His wife Kelly said "We decided to take a leap of faith and send him and see what happened.
We figured we didn’t have anything to lose.”
Before the stem cell treatment:
- Couldn't sweat to cool off his body, would pass out at high temperatures
- No feeling in his legs
- difficulty breathing, diminished lung function
- No control over his bladder
After the Adult Stem Cells were implanted:
- Started sweating after first injection of stem cells
- More feeling in his legs, can now feel hot and cold
- Easier breathing, stronger lungs
- More control over his bladder
Stem Cell Research using Adult Stem Cells Giving Hope
Chuck said, “It’s been a big boost in morale. It’s all the more reason I want to go back to see what possibly could come out of that.”
