Alabama Woman's Heart Rebuilt by Her Own Adult Stem Cells

"I told the doctor, 'I don't understand why we have this huge political mess going on about stem cells'...I'm living proof that adult stem cells work far better than embryonic. And why should embryonic even be in discussion?"

(Alabama)—When 58-year-old Carron Morrow, an event planner and mother-of-two from Alabama, suffered her 4th heart attack, she was told that the only way she would live was with a transplant. With 100,000 people waiting for a new heart, she began to think it would be the end of life for her.
