Experience with Stem Cell Storage?

A pregnant friend and I were talking about the practice of stem cell collection the other day over coffee - something I had NEVER heard of.
There is apparently family history of leukaemia (father and late cousin both died of it) and this practice promises to be a possible sure. She registered for a pack to be sent (here - http://www.cells4life.co.uk/request-a-welcome-pack)
Until the pack arrives, does anyone else know of the service? What it involves? Pro's and con's?
Many thanks...

I wasn't really sure where to post it really.
Would you suggest somewhere more appropriate?

Perhaps he was thinking along the lines of life insurance or health insurance.0 -
I hadn't read the thread, but I was thinking the OP was asking about how to Insure stem cells that had been collected and put into storage.
Which is why I had not opened the thread, as I would not have a clue.The comments I post are personal opinion. Always refer to official information sources before relying on internet forums. If you have a problem with any organisation, enter into their official complaints process at the earliest opportunity, as sometimes complaints have to be started within a certain time frame.0
