The role of a grandparent is like no other in the world. When the baby that you love and support and raised a baby of their own, a new kind of love was born.
Dr. Dhun Noria, distinguished leader of Laboratory Medicine at The Scarborough Hospital, knew that this love also comes with responsibility - the responsibility to protect. So when his son and his wife became pregnant, the decision to bank cord blood stem cells was easy.
"It was an opportunity to leave a legacy," Dr. Noria said. "You do not get the chance to return."
Surrounded by colleagues and friends that include community laboratory specialists, nurses, obstetricians and other health care providers, cellular function and blood systems were part of Dr. Noria daily life. because of his intimate knowledge of the importance of cord blood and its potential, Dr Noria took the decision to establish a cord blood bank funds for his granddaughter to be born.
aside from the inherent value of the bank this precious resource, the importance of banking cord blood for the granddaughter of Dr. Noria was amplified because of the unusual family context. as part of the Zoroastrian community , Dr Noria knew preserve own unique, genetically matched stem cells from his granddaughter would be a real advantage if necessary, especially as most donors in a public registry are Caucasian. She noted, "If they do not use it, so be it, but if they need it, cells are there."
We are delighted that Dr. Noria and his family chose to bank with Insception Lifebank. In the opinion of Dr Noria, Lifebank Insception offered tremendous credibility and the list of transplant success speaks volumes.
We look forward to continuing to work with Dr. Noria and her family to protect their future health in the coming years.
