Re: NINDS Information on Stem Cell Research

[Emily and Julian Brinac <jeimages@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you ALL; Thank you Murray. You made us breathe easier. This is such a 
knowledgeable network that it is beyond our expectation on personal experiences 
and  wealth of information that we received from you. Murray, at one time when 
I read on Stem research feedback, it said that it will probably be never used 
on large scale since it takes 8 aborted fetuses to treat one person. I am 
personally hopping for  better drugs, although our family doctor warn us that 
many new drugs are taken off the market within 1st year.
