Susan is a beautiful 8 year old, happy and full of life. Susan has Juvenile Diabetes. She has become accustomed to the blood tests and daily injections that she must take in order to survive. She does not quite understand that even with these injections she still faces long term health problems such as blindness, kidney failure, heart disease and more. She cannot begin to grasp why a small group of political activists have been able to block and delay her best hope for a cure, not just a treatment, for her and millions of other people that are affected by this disease.
Now imagine a world where diabetics could get an injection of stem cells, imprinted with their genetic information to prevent rejection, that then grow new insulin-producing pancreas cells! This could cure and not just treat diabetes. Others may grow new heart muscle damaged in a heart attack, or brain tissue damaged in a stroke, from Parkinson's disease, or any of a host of other diseases. Scientists believe that embryonic stem cell research may hold enormous promise for just this type of treatment.
Millions may die or suffer needlessly each year that this research is delayed by these activists. Polls show that an overwhelming majority of Americans support this research. This support is across party lines and religious beliefs. Only a small handful of activists are trying to impose their views on the rest of us. They stoop to misinformation and lying to block required research. Only if well- informed, reasonable citizens of Delaware take action by contacting their state representatives and demanding action can this promise of a cure be realized. You or a loved one's life or quality of life may depend on it.
