People who are of adult age today did not have the opportunity to have their umbilical cord blood stem cells stored when they were born. Given the rapidly developing and increasing number of therapy options involving adult stem cells this fact can prove very unfortunate in some cases. The reason: While, on the one hand, we have available numerous drugs that effective treat most diseases today, so that modern medicine is in a position to offer many patients suffering from chronic and degenerative diseases to live fairly normal lives, such medications frequently only treat the symptoms and do not result in a full recovery from the illness or eliminate the cause of the disease. As the illness progresses, the patient continues to experience a decline of his or her quality of life.
