Used Her Own Stem Cells
Diagnosis: Perinatal Stroke
Bailey was 3 days old when she had a perinatal stroke. Fortunately, her mom Rebecca banked her cord blood stem cells when she was born. She used her own cord blood stem cells and she is now living a healthy and normal life. Bailey is now 10 years old and she’s an absolute darling!
Used His Brother's Stem Cells
Diagnosis: Cerebral Palsy
Heather was pregnant and ready to labor when her uterus ruptured depriving Ryden, their 4th child, of oxygen. The MRI showed catastrophic brain damage, and his diagnosis was he would have extremely severe cerebral palsy. They were able to bank their 5th child's cord blood with StemCyte and used it for Ryden six months later in a clinical trial for Cerebral Palsy.
Used Donated Stem Cells
Diagnosis: Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Itzel Cervantes was 6 years old when she underwent cord blood transplant for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). The leukemia kept relapsing after chemotherapy, and the only way to stop it was a stem cell transplant. Itzel remains in full remission from leukemia, 9 years after transplant.
