Imagine a world were there is no need to be afraid of losing a limb. And were the majority of the population witch is poor can afford a new pancreas for there diabetic son/daughter or a heart when there is a shortage and the son/daughter who hasn't know the pleasures of a fill life could be given another chance to live again. This is why stem cell research should be legalized.
Did you know that as of Feb. 7, 2003 80,445 people were waiting for various organs.
ORGAN NEEDED NUMBER OF PEOPLE.
Kidneys 53,711.
Liver 17,077.
Pancreas 1,374.
Kidneys/Pancreas 2,444.
Heart 3,869.
Lung 3,821.
Heart/Lung 197.
Intestine 185.
ALL ORGANS 80,445.
.
And 6,000 people die every year from not getting an organ fast enough because there is a shortage. And another 10,000-15,000 people die every year and got an organ transplant but the transplanted organ was incompatible. Just think of how many lives were not lived to the fullest and ended prematurely because the people think that stem cell research is wrong or immoral. I say that there full of themselves because they don't have to live with people that have something wrong with them. My brother was diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 1 and I would do anything in my power to cure him of it. But at the way stem cell research is going he might not even get a pancreas or one that we can even afford.
Next, think about what would happen if one of those 20,000 people that die every year was just as smart as Albert Einstein and discovered a new law of physics that let us soar in to sky the without any visible means of propulsion. Or a writer that lost all of his his motor functions and had massive brain trauma that he dies from not having a spinal cord transplant from an accident that a drunk motorist slammed head on to writer while the writer was changing lanes. What if this writer was going to write a book that changed everyone life in a blink of an eye just by reading the book he/she wrote.
