As the parent of a handicapped child, there are three things I want to say about this.

1. I think myboynoah's skepticism is totally justified. In my experience, groups that claim to offer non-traditional miracle treatments are just hoping to benefit materially from the desperation of heartbroken parents. My heart aches for this family.

2. I would love to know if there's any actual scientific basis for the use of adult stem cells in this manner.

3. In a related matter, I noticed this yesterday on BBC:
