I am really excited to tell about cord blood banking. Actually, I came to know about it through a friend of mine whose son’s life could be saved by using this technology. Actually, long time back when his son was born, they had preserved his cord blood in the bank on the behest of a doctor friend. At that time, it seemed unnecessary to all of us. However, at that point of time none of us knew that it might prove a miracle to us at a later stage. My friend’s son was only five when he was identified with a rare form of blood cancer. All of us tried an arm and leg to help our friends in this distress but all in vain. Doctors had already told that there is only 50% chance that the child would survive. Fortunately someone suggested about the cord blood banking. We told about it to the concerned doctor. The blood was taken from the bank and in no matter of time, the doctors started the treatment. Surprisingly, the life of the child could be saved with this treatment. Very soon, the child started showing positive response to the treatment and started healing slowly but steadily. We all are very happy that our friend’s son is improving tremendously. He is an active kid with a high level of enthusiasm and zeal to live. I am sure he would fight this battle with ease and come out as winner.
