Patient takes heart in new stem cells trial. :
"The research, being conducted at Newcastle's John Hunter Hospital, involves isolating a rare stem cell from within the patient's own bone marrow and injecting it back into the heart muscle to prompt new blood vessel growth."
My father dies of a heart attack when I was young. It was a big loss and I see and hear of people who have lost their parents at an early age both for them and their parents. We seem to have the bypass surgery down to a fine art now. If we can master the stem cell treatment then more parents will stay alive and more people will stay alive to see their grand children. My father didn't ever see his grand children. It's a big piece of the puzzle missing as they grow up. People need to know whom they belong to. I hope this stem cell surgery helps, especially for this man who has been troubled with heart problems for 20 years.
