    If it wasnt as expensive as it is to bank it privately I would do it because it helps with research into Multiple Sclerosis and I have that so thats my reason. Probably would have been better if it was mine that was donated/stored. I have seen a programe on TV where the parents of a sick child that needed the steam cells to get better became pregnant to get the cells from the babys cord. That was kinda interesting but I cant remember what was wrong with the kid.

    Received the Bounty bag this week and in it there were 3 different pamphlets on companies that offer this service, so it does appear to be getting more popular and nationwide??
