There cracking down on so called stem cell clinics. All they do is take your money and you get no help and possible death. We did have a lady in our e-mail support group that went to Florida for stem cell she spent alot of money and received no help and passed away.

Thanks, Kandt and Kristen, I read all you're referred documents and articles, my doubt becomes more firm. Let wait and see, hopefully some day we would be able to get help from this.

Agreed, Yan. Let's see what the future holds for this and other potential treatments. I know there are people working hard to see an end to pulmonary disease in all its forms!
