Giving the Gift of Cord Blood Banking

Christmas is almost here and millions of us are trying to think of unique and meaningful gifts to deliver to our loved ones this year. If you're shopping for someone expecting a baby, you might want to consider gifting something that could impact that baby's future in years to come. What could be more meaningful and purposeful than an investment into the health and well-being of that precious bundle soon to see the world for the first time? Gift certificates for cord blood banking make for an unexpected, unique, life-saving gift to those parents to be this holiday season.

You've no doubt read a lot about the controversy behind the science of using stem cells to give new life and vitality to individuals suffering from debilitating and often life-threatening disease. What about Stem Cells that come from the umbilical cord of a newborn? Have you heard any controversy there? Through blood cord banking, you'll be preserving precious stem cells without the concern of destroying life in the process. It's an everyone wins proposition if there ever was one! Once a baby is born, the umbilical cord and all of it's contents are routinely discarded as medical waste, but through this amazing technology offered through C'elle the blood from the umbilical cord can be preserved for future use should the child (sometimes even siblings of the child) need it to fight illness or disease.

Value of Cord Blood is beyond measure with more than 75 diseases currently being treated using cord blood today. Scientists in the field continue to find new ways to use cord blood to treat and cure life-threatening illness through vigorous research.

Now that you know why to give the gift of cord blood banking, the next step is to know where. Cryo-Cell has offered the industry's highest level of quality since 1992. To date, Cryo-Cell has helped more than 175,000 families securely store their newborn's cord blood for any future needs that may arise.

Gift certificates start at just $50, giving you the opportunity to help your favorite expecting couple pay for this life-saving service. Consider having a cord blood shower and inviting friends and family to go in on a larger gift amount. If you're an expectant parent, why not invite those attending your baby shower to gift towards this service rather than puchasing overpriced baby clothing at high dollar stores?

Something to think about!
