It is a bitch to give them up. My grandkids came to me a couple of days ago and you smell bad. It got thinking if they say something it isn't good . I am doing my best to beat them out of my life. Grandkids are important to me!

My husband had stem cell therapy at the Lung Institute in Nashville Tn. It may help some folks but it did not give him any relief at all. He had his done a few months ago and there has been no change at all,in fact he is on near constant oxygen now where he wasn't before. But he "just had to see if it would help."

There is no scientific proof. Big proof of expensive procedures. Also heard repeat procedures are needed at more big expense. I would do this in a minute IF it was proven to work. Just be safe and research

What sort of stem cell work are you talking about? There are some things that are approved, but nothing I'm aware of for COPD. I'd like to see a link to what you're talking about.. Emery is certainly a well respected institution.
