All expecting parents across the
globe have understood the importance of cord blood banking and are seriously
working towards making this a success. They contact the stem cell banks and
register so that when the time for delivery approaches they are all ready to
store the stem cells. Many people are also opting for Family Cord Blood Banking
where all the family members store their baby's stem cell. They make a family
registration in which all the family stem cells are kept together and stored
properly after it is processed.
In this process of family cord
blood banking the family pays for the storage and processing of the entire
family's cord blood. The family will be the sole owner of these stem cells
which you can use
immediately when there is some emergency. It is one way of
getting peace of mind that their baby's stem cells will be stored and can be
used anytime in future for a family emergency. You can contact the bank anytime
and they will provide you the stem cells when you need to treat a family
member's incurable disease. It will help to build new blood cells and will help
the patient to recover fast. In short it will work like a new life line that
will give them new life and new hopes.
There are many banks dealing in
family cord blood banking where they collect the stem cells of the new born of
the same family and store it. This process may be a little expensive especially
when done for a family package but it is better as you don't need to go to
different banks every time you have a new born member in the family. This will
not only keep your family form hassles but it will also help to you to get
immediate help at any time you want. Some families donate their stem cells to
public banks because they know that if their family's blood cells cannot be
used then the public bank will provide them one. But if you this might not
happen when you opt for family cord blood banking.
Before you take a decision on
family cord blood banking it is good to take a look at your family's medical
history and see what kind of emergency can occur. It will give you a clear idea
on what step you need to take. If in the past stem cells of the same family has
not been accepted in treatment, it is better to go for public donation so that
you can acquire help from them when yo need it in an emergency.
