StemCellsChina Updates
"We went to walk and she said she was feeling the "flavor" of the sun, and this greatly moved me... today I am here at this hospital, watching some incredible things that only God could explain." Mother of Giulia Rodrigues da Silva
StemCellsChina works to connect people all over the world with active stem cell therapy centers in China. While still relatively unknown in the West, adult stem cell therapy--autologous and umbilical cord stem cells--have already seen a long history. Hospitals treating patients haven't seen three cases of Cerebral Palsy. They've seen hundreds. Symptoms of Ataxia can be radically reduced. Many genetic disorders respond well to umbilical cord and cord blood cells. 
Understanding China and understanding how to get in to Chinese hospitals can be a challenge. We hope to clear the air and pave the way for you to see and know what's happening there, help increase your knowledge of therapies delivered today and hopefully help you see something you had long ago been told was never possible.
This month we're bringing you several videos covering patients with numerous conditions including rare genetic disorders, Cerebral Palsy, Optic Nerve Hypoplasia, SMA Type II, Septo Optic Dysplasia and Multiple Sclerosis. None of these patients have found cures. But hopefully they have found valuable improvements in their conditions enhancing their quality of life.
We have great hope for the future of stem cell research. But we cannot forget that adult stem cells available today have valuable properties. When faced with a troubled birth, genetic disorder or neurodegenerative condition many doctors will simply say "There's nothing we can do. Go home and learn to live with it." For the patients in these videos, adult stem cell therapy is a tool they've used to learn to live with their conditions.
We are also highlighting blogs and bringing you updated videos from the StemCellsChina Vault newly subtitled and edited.
We're working to make these videos as accessible as possible to the whole world. We will soon have videos available in German, Russian, Chinese, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian and Korean.
Stem cell therapy is symptomatic treatment of severe genetic, neurodegenerative, cardiodegenerative and spinal cord developmental disorders. It is no cure. We thank all the patients who sat for these interviews and we hope their stories help give you a clearer picture of treatment today.
Featured Video
Frank Suffers from Charcoat-Marie Tooth syndrome, a genetic disorder. Discovered late in life, here he discusses the disorder and his decision to receive adult stem cell treatment for it. In this video Najib's mother discusses his condition and her family's hopes for his improvements. She discusses fund-raising efforts which made the journey possible and the whole family's experience living in a Chinese hospital for a month. Kyle and Rayanna both have Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type II (SMA II). It's a genetic disorder and there are many years between Kyle and Rayanna but together their stories should paint an informative picture for other patients considering if the treatment is right for them. Manuela and Giulia's mothers heard about improvements seen by children with ONH and SOD and decided to give it a try. This interview, shot in Portuguese and subtitled in English, captures the essence of their journeys.
Here at StemCellsChina we're constantly working to improve the
quality of our presentation. Providing video content is expensive
time-consuming work and we're grateful for the volunteers and donations
that make it possible for us to provide updates.
As part of this effort we're happy to dust off some old videos which
may have been difficult to watch at this website previously. We'll be
updating Patient Experiences associated with these videos as well.
This month we've collected together the clips for Konnor Boles. Like Braden Frohman this month, Konnor suffered from Spastic Quad Cerebral Palsy. Check out Konnor's Patient Experience here and watch his footage in one complete restored clip here.

A Call for Content - If you are a past patient and have video clips you'd like to share with us please let us know! Send us an email here.
We
are here to bridge the gap between, researchers, scientists,
laboratories, doctors, care providers and those seeking treatment; you.
It is our goal to create a smooth road and easy travel between patients
and the medical care they need.
