Stem Cell Research Helps Girl With Autism
A woman from New York has written an open letter to Obama saying that stem cell research using Adult Stem Cells has helped her daughter's autism. Judy DiCorcia is reporting that her daughter, Lauren, a 10 year old girl with autism has improved significantly after the stem cell treatment and therapy in Germany in January 2009.
Process of Stem Cell Research and Therapy for Autism
- Bone Marrow Extracted From Patient
- Using a centrifuge, stem cells are separated from the bone marrow
- Implanted into spinal canal via lumbar puncture- a simple procedure
As easy as 1,2, 3!
Improvements in Lauren After Stem Cell Treatment
- Can sleep through the night for the first time
- Less Frustrated
- Better focused, more compliant
- Moms says a "40% general improvement which is huge for an autistic child"
From the
stem cell article:
Now, more than five months since her treatment, Mrs. DiCorcia reports that her daughter is still doing well, "Lauren is doing well. I would have to say that she 'plateaued' at about the 12-week mark. Her situation is stable and fortunately all positive effects have persisted. I wish the doctor could fly to the US and perform the therapy here!"I wish they could perform the procedure here too Mrs. DiCorcia. Again, nobody is saying the stem cell therapy has cured Lauren. But the improvement in the quality of life is what is most important. And Lauren's mom says the improvement was 40%- in a simple procedure.
Now, Lauren had nothing to lose, the research has been done- the procedure used her own Adult Stem Cells so was perfectly safe. And it paid off for the family.
Here is the full letter from Lauren's mother addressed to Obama-
Dear President Obama,
I am the mother of a 10-year-old autistic daughter. In January, we took Lauren to Cologne, Germany for Adult Stem Cell therapy. The center used her own stem cells drawn from her hip bone marrow, centrifuged the next day, and then reinserted via lumbar puncture the following day (2.95 million cells). Both procedures were quick and not invasive at all. In the past 6 weeks we have seen significant improvements in our daughter's behaviors, focus, hyperactivity, and insomnia. I would rate a general improvement of about 40% - this is HUGE for a family living with autism. Our daughter started sleeping through the night for the first time (yes, she is 10 and got up every night) since stem cells. Lauren is happier just in her own skin - so much less frustrated and just generally happier. She is getting through her one-on-one therapy more quickly, better focused, and more compliant.
Of course, it amazes me that this simple, non-controversial therapy cannot be done here in the United States. Sincerely,
Judy DiCorcia
It amazes me too Judy. You should send your letter to the FDA as well.
We have previously reported on autism with
Matthew Faiella who has also improved due to stem cell research after adult stem cell treatment in Costa Rica. Here is more on Matthew and how stem cells have helped his
