The transplant that saved Nolan\u2019s life is being recognized as the first stem-cell transplant among siblings from a public umbilical cord bank, and a happy ending for the Nolan Comeau his family.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Nolan\u2019s Case is Not the Norm<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>While it is important to celebrate the cord blood stem cell match that saved Nolan\u2019s life, it is more important to understand that Nolan\u2019s case is the absolute exception when it comes to finding a donor match.<\/p>\n<p>For those considering whether or not banking is worth it, it is necessary to understand that, in Canada, numerous sibling transplants have taken place, thanks to the match rate for family\u2019s that choose to bank their baby\u2019s umbilical cord blood for their own use.<\/p>\n<p>While the less stringent matches for cord blood stem cell transplants does increase the odds of finding a match, making it a good idea to donate if you cannot find a way to bank privately, the odds of accessing a sample donated by a sibling is <em>extremely<\/em> rare, a point reiterated by Susie Joron, Manager of Donor Search Strategies at Hema-Quebec.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>20% of Donated Samples make it Into the Public Bank<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>One thing that families considering cord blood banking vs. cord blood donation should understand is that only 1 out of every 5 samples \u2013 about 20% \u2013 actually make it into the public cord blood bank, while the other 80% are redirected towards research.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, when you bank with a family cord blood bank like Cells for Life, you will be sure your sample is saved for future use, available to you and your family for years to come.<\/p>\n<p>Want to learn more about cord blood banking?
