When you give birth to your child, there is umbilical cord and placenta that come along with your baby. Most women, who do not understand what it means of having stored umbilical cord, will do nothing about it. But, you as a wise mother must know that within these two components there are a great number of stem cells. In the future, these stem cells will be the key to your treatment if you or your child suffers specific type of blood disease, such as myeloma or lymphoma.

Related to the bond between you and your child, the stem cell donation can only be performed is there is a similarity of Human Leukocyte Antigen type.
