Re: Fetal tissue transplant

[Guest guest]

Barbara,

If one person is getting better, that would mean that the cells

(dopamine producing neurons) are alive and well, maybe even producing

new ones. It would be worthwhile to study him as much as possble and

try to determine why they are growing in his brain. That could be an

important finding.

Are you all roasting marshmellows on the fires out there? We have had

rain ALL day - hooray! Vera must be upset that she had to call off her

shindig - have a hug Vera.

Take care, Bill Werre
