Florida Man With SCI Improved From Stem Cells

A Florida man who has a spinal cord injury (SCI) is benefiting from stem cell research that uses adult stem cells exclusively. David Aldrich is singing the praises of stem cell therapy in China that has helped improved his quality of life.

His Doctors Recommended He Go To China? Amazing!

Aldrich was paralyzed in a diving accident which also left him 100% blind. In a miracle of sorts, his local US doctors actually SUGGESTED he travel to China where they were doing the research and treatment using cord blood stem cells that would change his life.

After 3 Weeks- Could See Again!

While in China, Aldrich's could see again after the third week of the therapy. From the stem cell news article:

"While I was there, the third week, things started to come more into view," Aldrich said. "I started being able to read things." Aldrich said his breathing, speech and limb control all improved. National Geographic also followed his progress in a documentary called "Supercell."

Aldrich encouraged the use of stem cell therapies in the country. "There are so many people who suffer with diseases and spinal cord injuries that could be helped with stem cells," he said.

Aldrich has made two trips to China, and he said his vision is even better. In addition, he can now lean forward, whereas before the therapy he could only shrug his shoulders. He can also move his arms and legs and wiggle his toes.

He said he can enjoy many activities that he used to take for granted. "Being able to take my dog out for a walk everyday is the best part of my life," he said.

A Founding Father Of The Stem Cell Awareness Association

David is also one of the founders of the Stem Cell Awareness Association, an organization that is pushing to have adult stem cell therapy available in the United States as well as help sick patients seek adult stem cells outside the US.
