Stem cell therapy for autism: Victoria

Victoria explains the remarkable progress her son has made since undergoing stem cell therapy for autism in Panama at the Stem Cell Institute. He no longer needs to be placed into outside care. All of the professionals who care for him agree that “it must be the stem cells”. He has experienced a “rocketing of understanding”. He is now peaceful, calm and does not attack anyone. He can now be safely around his infant sister.

Stem cell therapy for autism: Kenneth Kelley TV News Story

July 2012 — Update from Marty Kelley on her son Ken’s progress following stem cell therapy for autism at the Stem Cell Institute in Panama.

“Ken has gone to summer camp (overnight) for the week! He was so excited to go! Ken claims that he is no longer scared of the dark and can handle summer camp…It feels very strange to not have him home this week. He is having such a good time.

This is a major event in our lives. If you understand the type of autism Ken had, you would know what a miracle this is. To clarify, Ken is at camp on his own without any support or an aide–he is just like all the other campers. Pray for the families that are still struggling and cannot do this with their children. Stem cells have changed our lives.” — Marty Kelley (Ken’s mother)

Stem cell treatment doing wonders for autistic boy

A year ago, 9-year-old Kenneth Kelley couldn’t read. Prior to the age of 7, Kenneth couldn’t even talk. He was diagnosed with autism at an early age. Now his parents say he reads all the time. “It’s amazing,” says Marty Kelley, Kenneth’s mother, “he was no where near that even in December. He just started a little bit a month ago. He picked up the books and started reading.”

Kenneth received stem cell therapy for autism at the Stem Cell Institute in Panama.

His parents say his sentence structure has improved and he’s more aware of his surroundings. He even remembers birthdays, days of the week and he can tell time. “We’ve just been waiting for the new things and the gains to stop coming and they’re not stopping. They’re coming every day,” says Marty Kelley.

Giving birth after stem cell treatments for spinal cord injury

Trish Stressman and her husband Scott discuss how stem cell therapy at the Stem Cell Institute in Panama allowed her to recover to the point at which she could safely give birth and care for her newborn daughter, Savannah Hope.
Prior to stem cell treatment, Trish had no core muscles and would not have been able to even safely hold a baby, let alone care for one. Since stem cells, that’s all changed. Congratulations Trish, Scott and Savannah Hope!

Stem cell treatments for multiple sclerosis: CBS News 4 report on Jennifer Blankenship

News of the stem cell bill signing was received with joy by a Lakewood woman who says the research has already improved her life. CBS force Terry Jessup goes in depth this evening with how the research in other countries is helping people in Colorado. Coloradans are hopeful for the future.

“…I see normally, and can move both legs straight out, and I can still do this (raises her hand). I couldn’t move this hand before, so, that’s remarkable.”

Jennifer Blankenship has suffered from Multiple Sclerosis since 1984, after years of no relief from pills and alternative medicines.

Blankenship: “I have done every drug on the market for MS.”

She traveled to Costa Rica to receive stem cell spinal injections.

Blankenship: “When I got back, I could move parts of my body, talk normally, I see normally, and can move both legs straight out, and I can still do this (raises her hand). I couldn’t move this hand before, so, that’s remarkable.”

And when she heard the news the President has now reversed limits on using money for embryonic stem cell research…

Blankenship: “So this will absolutely be a miracle for so many people….And it only works for a couple of years. But a couple of years for me is a lifetime.”

White: “It offers really new hope and exciting opportunities.”

Terry White is President of Bridge Health international, a local company that arranged Jennifer’s trip.

White: “We have seen patients within a short time after treatment, who had paralysis from a stroke, being able to grab something with that paralyzed hand and actually throw a ball so their dog can chase it.”

White concedes the stem cell treatments are expensive, normally running in other countries from twenty thousand up to sixty thousand dollars. Today’s Bill signing, he says, could change that, as more money becomes available for research. The question for people like Jennifer Blankenship is how soon the treatment she receives right now by the Institute for Cellular Medicine could become available her in the United States. That’s a question that’s tough to answer.

Blankenship: “It will probably be, hopefully in my lifetime.”
