Title: Cord Blood Question - repost from Misc.
Post by: ldominguez1022 on March 29, 2012, 12:20:23 PM

I just posted in the Misc. forum without seeing there was a specfic forum on cord blood. Oops.

I was wondering how cord blood could be beneficial to a Beta Minor? 

Thanks

Cord blood would be included under BMT, but I don't know of any therapy utilizing cord blood for thal minors.
