"Stem cells have the potential to cure diseases and conditions ranging from Parkinson's and Multiple Sclerosis, to Diabetes and Heart disease, Alzheimer's, Lou Gherig's disease, even spinal injuries like my own. They've been called the bodies self repair kit." Christopher Reeve.
Jan Wilks is someone who had the treatment of umbilical cord stem cells, and has left her wheelchair to gather dust. Sue Robinson is another, who after 4 hours from the treatment, found herself able to stand and cross her legs for the first time in years. The improvements increased. Both were diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. Paralysed rats are also recovering with embrionic stem cell treatment. So far there has been no negative results. It can vary from mild to full restoration on many different applications.
Although a treatment that is extremely new and still being researched, it does seem to be working. The biotechnical company that offers the treatment is 'Advanced Cell Therapies LTD'
In the case of MS and many other ailments, it is the hope that the stem cells are able to repair and rebuild the damaged parts of the spinal cord, and this is exactly what is happening. Stem cell research is in it's early days yet, and the treatment is very expensive, about $32 000 Aus, (13 000 pounds.) For MS, a quantity of umbilical cord stem cells are administered through a drip, and another quantity injected subcutaneously.
There is an extensive list of the ailments people suffer, that can benefit from the treatment. The list includes Cancer, Autism, Epilepsy, Acute and Chronic Stroke, HIV, Aids, Hepatitis C, Lupus, Tinnitus, and age related conditions.
Stem cell research is attracting big donors. New Zealand film makers, Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh, who created 'Lord of the Rings,' donated $411 000 to human embrionic stem cell research at the University of Calfornia.
I have either Primary Progressive MS, or Secondary MS. I do not have the finances to pay for the treatment, so I've started my own charity. I intend on auctioning off donated goods on Ebay, and will also be selling raffle tickets and organise charity events. I am gratefully accepting donations of used wedding dresses, good quality clothing, trinkets and jewellery. If you have something to donate, please post to the adress below.
I can walk for about 10 minutes. I am a university and TAFE trained artist, but MS has made my hands numb and my painting and drawing clumsy. I have MS related Chronic Paranoid Schizophrenia, extremely rare. Fortunately my medication for this is very effective. I have left many jobs because of years of untreated paranoia and have little savings. I often suffer from anxiety when I speculate on the degeneration this MS will have on my life in the future. MS can also kill. The quality of life can be effected by lack of bowel and bladder control, blindness and paralysis. However, since I started to research stem cells and began this charity I suffer less anxiety.
I am hoping to be able to help others that cant afford the treatment.
