Friday, September 7, 2007 - Much Needed News Coverage!

September 8th, 2007

Just want to let everyone know that while we were in China, NBC news did two stories on patients who had stem cell treatments at our hospital in Hangzhou. One news report was on baby Cameron who I mentioned in an earlier posting and the other was on a little girl from Wisconsin. After we left China, ABC was at our hospital doing another story about the stem cell treatments. We aren’t sure when that story will be aired but we are so excited that finally, more people in the U.S. will be able to hear of the good that these treatments are doing for some devastating conditions!

As for Dave, he is back to work now. We are, however, feeling more effects of the jet lag from our trip home than we did from the trip to China. Hopefully, as we feel less and less tired, Dave will be able to see some more positve improvement in his ability to walk without the aid of his brace or a cane.

It has been fun for us to stay in touch with those of our friends in China who have Skype. We have even been able to see them as we talk, thanks to the use of web cams. They are able to keep us updated on the progress of fellow patients. This technology is great in helping bridge the distance between here and China!
