dear president obama, please reverse the restrictions on embryonic stem cell research so that the US may join the UK in further studies of stem cells in the treatment of MS. this study in the UK shows tremendous promise.

Symptoms were reduced in 17 sufferers in a test group of 21 after they were treated with blood stem cells taken from their bone marrow. These haemopoietic cells, which are the precursors to all the components of blood, were used to replace types of white blood cell that attack the central nervous system in MS sufferers.

Stem cells may also have applications for Type 1 Diabetes. Fingers crossed...
