Tiny Cells, Enormous Possibilities – Save Them When It Matters Most

At the very beginning of life, a treasure exists — mostly ignored by many — which is neither some technology breakthrough nor the latest wonder drug. It is something as natural as birth: umbilical cord blood. Inside this tiny quantity of blood reside embryonic stem cells capable of treating, curing, and changing lives.
These cells may be small — even microscopic — but their overall potential is enormous.

Why Cord Blood Is Special?

Cord blood is an excellent source of hematopoietic stem cells collected after birth from the umbilical cord and placenta. These stem cells are the common precursors of blood and immune system. They can regenerate the source of red and white blood cells, fight infections, and replace diseased bone marrow.
At present, these cells are being used to treat over 80 serious conditions, including:

*Leukemia and lymphoma

*Sickle cell anemia

*Some types of inherited immune disorders

*Bone marrow failure syndromes

They are also being investigated for their possible use in regenerative medicine for conditions such as cerebral palsy, autism, and type 1 diabetes.

An Irreplaceable Opportunity

Cord blood can only be collected once, at birth: this fact truly renders the decision of whether to save or donate cord blood time-sensitive and extremely important. Once the cord blood is thrown away, the option really goes with it.

Parents today generally have two options:

Donate to a public cord blood bank that will give it to any patient in need anywhere in the world.

Store privately for future use either by the child or family.

Each option has its advantages, but one thing they have in common is the ability to change something that was once thought of as waste into a powerfully life-saving resource.

Safe, Simple, and Painless

The entire process of collection is safe, painless, and does not interfere with labor or delivery. It only takes a few minutes, but the impact may last a lifetime.

A Future Worth Saving

The stem cells are evolving at a rapidly unparalleled pace, such that in the near future medicinal solutions to conditions once deemed incurable may be possible. From repairing damaged tissues to rebuilding immune systems, medicine is being built — cell by cell.

By banking cord blood, you are effectively preserving a unique biological resource that could represent hope, healing, and new beginnings — for your child and possibly for others.

Tiny Cells, Enormous Possibilities

With every birth comes life, and with cord blood banking, the chance to preserve another life. It is indeed affecting the miraculous potential that is being created and is yet to be seen on the horizon.

Choose to save; when it matters most.
