Based on all comments, Stemcell have to pay rm250/yr whereas Cellsafe only pay 1 shot. In long run Cellsafe is cheaper rite?

cellsafe has options. a 1 off payment for those who can afford , and an installment monthly plan.
i dunno about Stemcell.

If i rmb well, Stemcell 1st pymt was rm2k++ & every yr hav to pay rm250.

Yes, all the stem cell company comes with one time payment option or we can pay by yearly after the lower initial payment on the first year. But if we choose to pay one shot at the start, then it will be cheaper.

But again, if you choose for storage at two location, it still needs to depends on the volumn of stem cells which is able to be extracted. If it is not enough to store at two location, then they will refund back the difference.

i juz choose to go for Cryocord as their insurance coverage higher.
the package i took is about RM4200 with auto process.

Didn't go for Stemlife as they store the blood for their customer even they have Hepatitis B infected and their package is most expensive among all.

Btw, why do parent want to keep the baby stem cell?
The stem cell cannot be use for the baby and only can be use for the baby siblings

It can be used for baby only for cerebral palsy (for now)... and that treatment is experimentational, they often do it in Thailand...

And if the gene is defective (e.g baby has thalassemia or leukimia), even the siblings cant benefit from it.. how lah

WoW.. Thanks for the info...
Honestly, I won't opt for stem cell if I were to view logically.
But emotionally, I may opt for stem cell... and that's why most stem cell company marketing ppl are targeting the fear and hope emotions

Dear all,

Just wanted to know is it there are 2 types of components can be stored right? blood and cell? or what? I went to crychord but forgot the packages already. Can anyone explain more to me?

The video in this link explain very clearly on what is stored.. http://incomingincomingbaby.blogspot.com/2...stem-cells.html

Sound to me, it's more like an insurance. I do agree that the cases of usage are rare but no one will know whether we will be the "unlucky" one. At least when things happen, there is a slight hope? Moreover, 20 years from now, no one will know how the technology grows, there might be new discovery of benefits/usage....

haha...i'm still considering actually...but sound to me alot said cyrocord better? is there any statistic? I think it's good to see all the agents first...

that you for all the valuable information

After reading all the post, make me really dilemma whether to store my coming daughter stem cell. My 1st child's cord blood was stored with Cryocord at Yr2008.

We are thinking to keep the same with my coming baby. Upon explained by the salesperson, they have "new" package to collect the Mesenchymal stem cells which costs about 15k.

This really make us think twice whether should go for the 15k package, normal 5k hematopoietic stem cells package or just save the money to buy insurance.

Please advise ^^

Oh my, reading all the conflicting posts really give me a hard time in reaching a conclusive decision. I was thinking of getting some opinions on which of the current 3 companies is the most recommended but ended up being indecisive on whether it's still a sound idea to invest in stem cell storage.
