		<description>Hello Dr Hammadi,
I met Andrew White when he came for a visit to Cyprus - we were totally blessed to have him with us for a while.  He mentioned his Stem cell treatment - which I was really interested to hear as I&#039;m an intensive care nurse...  
I have a friend who is desperate to give it a go, she has a spinal cord injury.
She can&#039;t afford treatment in the USA and isn&#039;t available in the UK at the moment... So - I&#039;m wondering if she could talk to you either via email or the phone.  
I look forward to hearing from you,
Kind Regards,
Kerry</description>

		<description>There is a group of physicians, patients and other interested people working together to get treatment with adult stem cells legalized in the U.S. as it should be. The organization was formed in response to the Food and Drug Administration&#039;s (FDA) recent position that the adult stem cells found in everyone’s body are drugs. A person&#039;s cells (autologous) should be their own and NOT regulated by the FDA. That is one of the major reasons why most stem cell clinics are overseas. This stance is ridiculous and is costing millions of lives while sick Americans wait for the use of their own stem cells which would improve their quality of life. The FDA is not protecting us, but hurting us. Please ask your family and friends to sign up (&quot;JOIN&quot;), and get as many doctors to sign up as well. Please see The American Stem Cell Therapy Association (ASCTA) site and the associated Safe Stem Cells Now patient site. If enough people sign up and show a protest to this thing, the FDA will have to back down. They have no right to claim your own tissue is a &quot;drug&quot; to be regulated by them in the first place.
