Congress has just passed and sent to my desk two bills concerning the use of stem cells in biomedical research. These bills illustrate both the promise and perils we face in the age of biotechnology. In this new era, our challenge is to harness the power of science to ease human suffering without sanctioning the practices that violate the dignity of human life. (Applause.) In 2001, I spoke to the American people and set forth a new policy on stem cell research that struck a balance between the needs of science and the demands of conscience. When I took office, there was no federal funding for human embryonic stem cell research. Under the policy I announced five years ago, my administration became the first to make federal funds available for this research, yet only on embryonic stem cell lines derived from embryos that had already been destroyed. My administration has made available more than million for research on these lines. This policy has allowed important research to go forward without using taxpayer funds to encourage the further deliberate destruction of human embryos. One of the bills Congress has passed builds on the progress we have made over the last five …













After 6 months of offering stem cell therapy in combination with the venous angioplasty liberation procedure, patients of CCSVI Clinic have reported excellent health outcomes. Ms. Kasma Gianopoulos of Athens Greece, who was diagnosed with the Relapsing/Remitting form of MS in 1997 called the combination of treatments a “cure”. Log? on to ccsviclinic. ca for more information.
“I feel I am completely cured” says Ms. Gianopoulos, “my symptoms have disappeared and I have a recovery of many functions, notably my balance and my muscle? strength is all coming (back). Even after six months, I feel like there are good changes happening almost every day. Before, my biggest fear was that the changes wouldn’t (hold). I don’t even worry about having a relapse anymore”.

A group of Canadian patients just back from Noble have reported similar results. “I can actually see what I thought were long-dead muscles forming in my feet” said Larry Vermeersch of Kenora, Ontario. “My balance is back and I’m walking without a cane. I’m a pretty hard guy to convince,? but getting these two procedures together has made me a believer. I’m looking forward to the physio ahead because I can feel everything coming back.” Log on to ccsviclinic. ca for more information.
A universal benefit reported by every patient has been the recovery of bladder control. Most MS patients have various bladder control symptoms that include urinary urgency, incontinence, nocturia, or urinary hesitancy as a result of the disruption of electrical impulses from the brain to the nerves and muscles that are involved in emptying the bladder (pudenal nerve, urethral sphincter, detrusor muscle).?

Dr.Avneesh Gupte, the Neurosurgeon at Noble Hospital performing the procedure has been encouraged by results in Cerebral Palsy patients as well. “We are fortunate to be able to offer the treatment because not every hospital is able to perform these types of transplants.You must have the specialized medical equipment and specially trained doctors and nurses”. Log? on to ccsviclinic.ca for more information.
With regard to MS patients, “We are cautious, but nevertheless excited by what patients are telling us. Suffice to say that the few patients who have had the therapy through us are noticing recovery of neuro deficits beyond what the venous angioplasty alone? should account for”. Log on to ccsviclinic. ca for more information.
Dr. Hemangi of Noble continues: “These are early days and certainly all evidence that the combination of liberation and stem cell therapies working together at this point is anecdotal. However I am not aware of other medical facilities? in the world that offer the synthesis of both to MS patients on an approved basis and it is indeed a rare opportunity for MS patients to take advantage of a treatment that is quite possibly unique in the world”. Log on to ccsviclinic. ca for more information.
Autologous stem cell transplantation is a procedure by which blood-forming stem cells are removed, and later injected back into the patient. All stem cells are taken from the patient themselves and? cultured for later injection. In the case of a bone marrow transplant, the HSC are typically removed from the Pelvis through a large needle that can reach into the bone. Log on to ccsviclinic. ca for more information.
The technique is referred to as a bone marrow harvest and? is performed under a general anesthesia. The incidence of patients experiencing rejection is rare due to the donor and recipient being the same individual. This remains the only approved method of the SCT therapy.

A man with morals and ethics. The most vulnerable and innocent among us are life in women’s wombs.?
We all started and thank each day our parts were not used for sick science, or abortion.
Coprehensive speaqch, my sugesstion is that? this research must be conducted in devloping countries like pakistan becz. here expensis of this research decreases funded by us . And we gain max . benifits
Wow! Usually that kind of response is saved for Bush supporters. It is quite clear by? my 6-month old post that I’m not.
smurray36, perhaps you are correct in saying that Bush should not have allowed research on the already dead embryos. However,? the reason for this video post is to warn people that the Democrats are planning to legalize embryonic stem research by destroying NEW embryos — which of course, is the destruction of human life. Anything you can do to help prevent that would be good.
BenjaminWirtz, that is true — thank you for the? comment.

Benjamin, the only reason to? have ESC research is to fund the abortion industry, giving it an excuse to murder. The devil is in these hearts, not reason.
Now skin cells have shown to be successful so the people who want embryonic stem cell research have very little ground to stand on, certainly no moral ground? from the beginning.
I am a “black? and white” traditional Roman Catholic (against Vatican II) and I do not pat Bush on the back for a seemingly good act, when he certainly fanned the flames of evil by allowing ANY em. Stem cell research. It is evil, plain and simple.
smurray36, adult stem cell research has been successful — we will? be posting videos to show example of this. Did you watch the entire video? Bush is supporting adult stem cell research, but is opposing embryonic stem cell research. When he took office, he did not permit the destruction of embryos for research. As far as the morning after pill and RU-482, which are against the teachings of the Church — I will have to do some research to see what Bush did with regards to that.
Embrionic research is a failure. All he did was not give those destroyed unborn children a decent burial. We should be mourning the fact that they weren’t baptized, instead of? playing Fankenstein with them. Bush made the “morning after” pill available OTC thru his HHS.
smurray36, as he says in the video — he allowed embryonic research only on embryos that had already been destroyed. He did not permit the destruction of any new embryos. As far as the morning after pill and RU-482, which are against the teachings of the Church — I? will have to do some research to see what Bush did with regards to that.
I don’t see where Bush is considered a “pro-life” president. He allowed embrionic stem cell research. He allowed,, through his FDA, the morning after pill. He allowed the continuation of RU-482. History wil will judge him, and? God will judge him.
