Oh dear, I don't understand what stem cells and abortions. the NIH statement said clearly that the stem cells came from donated in vitro fertilizations. No one was every pregnant. What do you think happens to those IVFs if they are not used? they never become babies. Go back and read that. My husband is not a candidate for these transplants. There are a great number of chronic diseases, which could be helped. This is all I have to say. Nita Merlin H Brown wrote: > I agree with the statement made below by the Gov. of Nebraska.
