Leo’s second chance
At just 10 months old, Leo Martinez was diagnosed with Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), a rare blood disorder that affects bone marrow function. His doctors recommended a stem cell transplant as the best course of treatment. Thankfully, Leo’s parents had banked his cord blood with StemCyte at birth. Using his own preserved stem cells, Leo underwent a successful transplant—and today, he’s a thriving, energetic toddler with a bright future ahead.
“Preserving Leo’s stem cells gave us an option when we felt helpless. StemCyte gave our son a second chance.” — Marissa Delgado, Leo’s mom
Maya’s bright future
Diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at age 4, Maya’s family began researching options that might support her long-term health. When her baby brother was born, they preserved his cord blood with StemCyte, and Maya was later enrolled in a trial exploring the use of sibling stem cells for autoimmune conditions. The results were promising, and today Maya manages her condition with greater ease and fewer complications.
“We’re hopeful again—for Maya’s health and her future.”— Jason K., Maya’s dad
Elliot’s turning point
Elliot’s parents noticed developmental delays early on and later received an autism diagnosis. Because they had preserved his newborn stem cells with StemCyte, Elliot was eligible to participate in an investigational therapy using his own cord blood. His parents say the changes—improved communication, eye contact, and engagement—were the turning point in his journey.
“We’re watching Elliot become more connected to the world around him. It’s been life-changing.”— Claire R., Elliot’s mom
