Re: [QUAD-L] Anyone have stem cell therapy?

2013-08-25 Thread wheelchair
Thanks Dianna.  Discussing stem cell therapy is like talking about  
football, in that, the subject is so complex and has more then 100 yard  marks. 
 
I guess its just as easy to use the term than reduce the subject to  all of 
its complexities. Some Stem Cell therapy is being conducted in the  USA.  
Most of the radical therapies are practiced in other countries.

I'm just curios if there's ever been any research done on stem cell use to 
treat pressure sores?  I would volunteer my right butt cheek if the 
treatment/trial was free and not hazardus.

Ron,
 I think you, and a few more of us, should record our years of knowledge, 
and put it on YouTube. Title it something like How to surviving a broken neck 
What a Newley SPINAL CORD INJURY'D person should  shouldn't do 10 steps to 
dealing with insurance Anything along those lines.Bobbie

 you in my opinion are getting involved in a college and either getting a

 two things alone along with what you learned in rehab and family support will 
 determine how successful your new life is going to be. This is the new you 
 and that isnt necessarily a good or bad thing it just is. Its a chance to 
 start over in any case and build new. This window of opportunity slowly 
 closes and you are left with what you learned, wrote, adapted and so on. If 
 you waste the first few years worrying about  things like stem cells I 
 believe you will be sorry.  If I were involved with these sci magazines, I 
 would write a three page special on what to do after you have a spinal cord 
 injury. Im so angry at times at what people told me to do when I was first 
 injured that was foolish and Im paying the price now.I hope someone can take 
 something I said and make it useful to a newly injured, scared person. Sci is 
 not the end, its just the beginning of a journey.
