Cryo-Cell Helps Haiti Relief Fund

Friday, February 5th, 2010 | Health with Comments Off

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Cryo-Cell International. All opinions are 100% mine.

Cryo-Cell has been open since 1992 preserving newborns umbilical cord blood for potential uses in fighting diseases later on in life whether it is the person it came from or a sibling. Until recently it has always been discarded. We did not know that there was a need for it until research scientists discovered it was a source for stem cells which can be a substitute to bone marrow (which is a painful process to harvest if needed). Stem cells are a perfect match because it essentially was part of that person in utero. Now it might not be useful in all diseases so it will all depend on the situation. If you choose to harvest this blood, you can rest assured that there is a facility that will keep it which is Cryo-Cell.

If you enroll now with Cryo-Cell they will donate $25.00 from each enrollment to the “Save the Children: Haiti Relief Fund”. I’m sure you have been hearing the news about the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti and this is another way of helping out. Every little bit that can be gained is worth it so that they can rebuild for a better and brighter future. This is only going on through February with Cryo-Cell but you can always donate to the fund.

Four Foods on Friday #104

Friday, February 5th, 2010 | General with 2 Comments

Time to learn more food facts according to me. If you are not interested you can move along. As always be sure to check out Fun Craft and Recipes to join each week and to spread the news so others might join as well.

Ha, on time this week :)

1. Name four things you are planning on eating this weekend.

Well, the weekend, in my opinion, starts after work is over on Friday. So, chicken and vegetables for dinner tonight. Most definitely pizza or a sub on Sunday for the big game. Most probably some fruits and veggies on Saturday since I will be going to the store and will have stocked up on those. I think I might make some homemade tacos this weekend too so hamburger, lettuce, cheese, salsa. I always have yogurt too – Raspberry Cheesecake is yummy.
