Have You Thought About Donating The Cord ...
My brother in law passed away this past week. He was a kidney transplant recipient. I am currently 19 weeks pregnant and I have never stopped to think about donating the cord blood, that is, until his death and my sisters desire to have any donations go to the “Gift of Life.”
Do you think it is a good idea?

Comments on Have You Thought About Donating The Cord ...
I think its a wonderful idea… that is as long as you dont plan to store it for your own family…. why not if it can save another life or even prolong another life.. i say go for it!
So sorry to hear about your loss….
I wanted to. I told them when I went to the hospital, but they said that I had to sign up for it earlier. I thought it was kinda weird since it was a donation but whatever. So yes, I think that it is WONDERFUL and make sure you sign up to donate BEFORE hand!
Donating cord blood is a wonderful thing, but storing it isn’t usually helpful unless you or someone in your family has a disease or illness that could be benefitted from th ecord blood.
Also chances are that you or the person in need may not even be compatable with the cord blood.
I plan on donating my cord blood
Saving the life of a loved one is priceless! But! Seeing
how Homeland Security sticks its nose into so many
hospital visits (like my verichip issue) …………….
I’m not trying to spook anyone! It’s just that the Central
Bank Bloodline is diabolical! Handing the Rockefellers
any bit of DNA, i feel, lets them build a market of
manipulation on anyone!
But ultimately, blood is thicker than water!
i will donating mine! Lorenzo will be happy to know that when hes older,, he may have helped save someone life when he was born
I donated my cord blood twice, it was free and i felt good that i could help someone
Yes! DO IT! It could end up saving someones life. Alternately, what the hell are you going to do with it? Seems like a no brainer to me.
