What`s new here is not the use of umbilical cord blood in the treatment of a life-threatening disease, but it`s the way the transplant was engineered and the way the baby was conceived.

This is a year and a few months after the transplant. Before I had it my doctors told me that it would be the biggest thing that I ever had to face and believe me, when they take your liver out of ya and put another one in it`s like replacing a football i...

[The band started in 1999 in San Francisco, when high-school friends Hayes and bassist Robert Turner met drummer Nick Jago (a British transplant) through a newspaper ad. They rehearsed in Turner`s bedroom for six months before finally working up the nerve...
