"Of course, having more grandchildren is a good thing, but their mother isn't such a good person. I'm having a headache just thinking about it! Do you know that Edric is bent on rekindling the flame with Irene? Lily just happens to be pregnant at the moment. What should we do now? My head is killing me just thinking about it." There seemed to be something off in Margaret's tone. Now that the cat was out of the bag, and Margaret was not someone who kept her promises, she might regret her decision. Once she did so, the matter would be hard to deal with. Worried, Marie said, "The success rate of treating leukemia with the cord blood transfer is high, but it needs to be compatible to be successf

"Actually, in life, if you lose a kidney, and sell your kidney, your quality of life will decline, your physical condition will weaken, you won't be able to do heavy work, or you will feel tired, these sequelae will all appear in the later life of people who have lost a kidney. I believe you can feel this yourself. From a medical point of view, the human body has the function of regenerating bone marrow, just like chives, if you cut off a root, it can grow back. However, your body condition… Moreover, before donating bone marrow, you will have to continuously inject growth factors for 4 to 5 days. We need to collect stem cells for blood regeneration. After collection, normal people can feel

“Daniel is my son too. Do you really think I’d harm him? A bone marrow donation is not a big deal. There’s no lasting damage, and it could save Lisa’s life! You’re supposed to be highly educated—how can you be so irrational?” I couldn’t understand his stubbornness or his selfishness either. My voice sharpened as I fired back, “Wake up, Alex! How old is Daniel? His body is already weaker than most children. A procedure like this—post-op infection, physical depletion—those are real risks. His immunity could drop drastically. He could get sick constantly, fall behind in development. You’re so focused on repaying your debt—have you even thought about what he’ll have to go through?”

Mable’s expression changed dramatically. Umbilical cord blood could be used to treat many illnesses. Since Mable consumed the Ice Jade Flower, her umbilical cord blood would also contain the detoxification properties of the Ice Jade Flower. Mable was a doctor, so she understood the implications. No wonder Blair threatened her not to abort the baby. It turned out that he wanted the baby’s umbilical cord blood to save Olivia. He did not truly care about the baby. Mable thought, ‘Blair doesn’t love me at all. So, why would he care about my child?’

Umbilical cord blood, is the blood that is stored in the umbilical cord and placenta of a newborn baby after the umbilical cord is tied. The latest medical discoveries show that cord blood can treat many blood system diseases. However, one copy of cord blood is only enough for one stem cell transplant for a child under the age of 10. Even if Chen Cailing gives birth to a child, the cord blood will not be enough, and they still need to go to the blood bank to look for other matching cord blood. Moreover, cord blood is much more demanding in terms of matching than bone marrow, and it is very difficult to find the right one!

The doctor reclined on his chair and spoke, “Since we've discussed treating Carl's SCID. I would love to talk about a potential solution.” I paused, eager to hear what he would say next. The doctor leaned forward, clasping his hands together. “What we need is a newborn’s bone marrow which could be a potential match for Carl,” His words sank in and I creased my brows as I probed further, “How? Can you explain?” He nodded and continued, “The umbilical cord blood is rich in hematopoietic stem cells and we can harvest it at birth.” I felt a glimmer of hope surge within me.

Fiona quickly responded. "Don't you know the importance of cord blood as a doctor?" Damon wasn't convinced. Fiona stammered and couldn't come up with a convincing explanation. Damon impatiently ended the call. Storing cord blood for a child wasn't expensive. Considering Fiona's financial status and her profession as a doctor, Damon couldn't believe she hadn't stored Lester's cord blood. Either she didn't want to give it to Damon at all, or there was something fishy going on with Lester's cord blood.

"Because of genetic similarities, there's a risk of transfusion-associated graft-versus-host disease, which has a very high fatality rate." Timothy asked patiently, "Do you have matching blood in your blood bank?" The doctor shook his head. "Not at the moment. Your daughter's blood type is rare, and we don't have it in storage." I spoke up immediately. "I donated last time, and she didn't have any complications." "That's correct," the doctor said. "The incidence is extremely low, and we're only being cautious. Since there's no alternative and the transfusion is urgent, we can use your blood, but you'll need to sign an informed consent form and liability waiver."

"That won't do. The child in her stomach is mine. If it's as you said, he's so powerful, of course I'll let him come to this world and grow up." Pete sighed and said, "Of course there's no problem with him coming to this world. How about this? You wait until he's born. Then, during the operation, I'll come personally and save the placenta and umbilical cord blood myself. This way, we can extract the serum and make better use of it. It's just a little longer. It'll take a few months." I rolled my eyes at him and nodded. "Of course it's okay. I also hope that my child is stronger than me. That's better."

Not now. The nurse nodded softly. "Then we focus on you," she said. Ava turned back to look at the consent form. The lines got blurred before her vision. Procedure. Risk. Termination. Her stomach twisted. "Is there really no other way?" she asked quietly. "For the bone marrow donation?" the nurse replied gently. "Not safe during pregnancy." Ava closed her eyes again. Lydia's hospital bed. Marcus is sitting beside her. His grip on the weak fingers of his daughter.
