Katy and I decided to bank our babies' cord blood because we figured that should they ever, God forbid, develop a condition that could be treated or cured with stem cells, their cord blood would provide the best source. Finding a good bone marrow match can be next to impossible, and adult stem cells currently only have limited uses. And we're not holding our hopes on embryonic stem cells, given the US government's current stance. Cord blood banking, for us, is sort of like life insurance for a horrible event, but with a happier ending: our child gets to live. I'm posting the coupon code here for anyone who's expecting a baby and considering cord blood banking: Call 1-888-227-2460 Or visit www.cordblood.com Mention this code to receive your discount: M1971 http://enonprofits.org/cbr.html If anyone is expecting a baby and considering banking their baby’s cord blood, here’s a little financial incentive: $250 Coupon for Cord Blood Registry.
