stem cells

last night i watched the sister's keeper.yeah i know I'm too late for that!basically it's GREAT movie directed by same director from 'the notebook'. awesome weh! the story is about a sister who has leukemia.u know patients with this disease may have to undergo bone marrow transplant. but more often than not,people who need bone marrow transplants can not find a match.thus the only brilliant solution is to bank your baby's cord blood if let's say he diagnosed with the disease.. *touch wood* so the moral of this story is to be prepared coz we might not know Wat will happen in the future. cewah. actually I'm just about to do that for my first newborn.well..it simply an easy steps where after u deliver, the umbilical cord will be place in cool container n will send off to cord blood bank which u have to pay $200 per month.pikir2 blk i dun have that much money to spend on it for another at least 20 years.
