we saved elysia's cord blood - well her uncle paid for it to be used for his son who has CF & if any one else needs it! as i had a c section the cord blood was collected after the cord was cut & they got more than enough from the cord & it is now stored in sydney - i had a few health issues in the past including living in england in the mad cow period as well as having viral hepatitis but after further tests before the cord blood collection i was given the all clear - we are the guardians of the cord blood till elysia turns 18 so im hoping it can be used to help her cousin in some way -there are sooooooooo many illnesses it can help & after processing it they have only stored 42mls which i was told is more than enough
