There is good news out of Duke University for some parents of children with cerebral palsy. Lawyers are able to help you seek compensation for the care of your child after their birth trauma, but there is still no greater resolution than actually getting to see a child recover from this debilitating disease.
Before her parents enrolled her in the Duke University experimental procedure, 2-year-old Chloe Levine had very limited use of the right side of her body and was looking at almost twenty years of physical therapy. Luckily Ryan and Jenny Levine had paid to bank Chloe’s umbilical cord blood after her birth, from which researchers at Duke were able to extract stem cells to repair Chloe’s damaged brain tissue.

Since that milestone procedure 2 months ago, Chloe has made a 50 percent recovery and can now walk, run and do sign language.

Unfortunately, this treatment is only available to parents who opted to bank their baby’s umbilical cord blood at birth.
Currently it costs about $2,000 to bank an infant’s cord blood, but Dr. Manny Alvarez of Fox News predicts that cost will soon drop. Cord blood is most useful for the person it came from, but can also be used to help ailing siblings.
Cerebral palsy is a devastating and often preventable disease for which there is still no cure. If your child has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy, lawyers in our office are ready to help you.
