I am a mother of 3, my oldest has a medical condition that makes him a high cancer risk.  So when I had my 2nd child my Geneticist told me to bank the babies cord so I did.  This way if and when my 1st born develops cancer we will have his brothers blood cord to fall back on to help him recover from the cancer.  When I had my 3rd child the doctor again recommended that I bank her cord.  So I have 2 cords in storage and I can use them on any of us.  I actually feel very safe with these in the bank.  If you have any questions I will try to answer them.

Stacy I know that must be a big relieve to have that.  When I did decide to do it I told my husband lets just think about it like an insurance that we hope that we never have to use.

Thanks for sharing your story
