  • well... it's nice to read ethical debates. but seeing as i NEED a stem cell therapy to live... well, if you were in my shoes, and were aware that it could be done, what would you choose?

    it's easy to debate what is ethical and what isn't. it's more difficult when you yourself would benefit directly from progress with the research at hand. think about it.

  • Facinating. Too bad some religions(not all of them of course) would rather see people die of heart failure than use stem cells to save millions of lives. Or is that only embryonic stem cells?

    Awesome anyway...

Even after six months, I feel like there are good changes happening almost every day. Before, my biggest fear was that the changes wouldn’t (hold). I don’t even worry about having a relapse anymore”.
