Jane,
There
is great optimism that young cells from the umbilical cord and blood may holdd
secets to the cure for various diseases, perhaps even PD.
Ask
the clinician who wants to collect the umbilical what exactly they will do with
it. They proobably will give you something in
writing....
My
daughter in law did it. I hope your daughter will too.....
:-)
All
the best,
Bill -

My daughter is having
a baby in a couple of weeks and she has been asked if
she wants to freeze
her umbical blood. Can
someone tell me how it would be
used in research?
