Default Re: Stem Cell Therapy in China

The stem cells aren't even a localized injection. They give you treatments through an IV into the bloodstream and epidural in the lumbar region (which injects the serum into the spinal fluid). The whole thing makes no sense to me. Not to mention the outright fallacies that I have found in their statements about possibility of host rejection and ill side effects. If I were an expert in human physiology and biology I would be willing to bet that I could find more fallacies.

If you read enough about my daughters condition, ONH specifically, you will find that: from a young age, a child can actually develop a certain level of eyesight. My thoughts tend to go backwards in time when we first found out she had the condition.

We were told that she could very well be completely blind and the best case scenario is that she has partial sight of some sort. *What if!!!* we had had this stem cell therapy at that time and *poof* as she got older, we found out she had sight (the same level of sight that she has now). Would we have contributed her sight to this therapy????? When in fact it was just her learning how to see with her own limitations that were provided to her by her optic nerves and/or her sight improving a little bit all by itself.
