Almost 4 weeks ago when our baby boy was born, Dougie and I decided to use Future Health Biobank to help us store Locki\u2019s cord blood cells.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

There were so many reasons why we opted for this insurance policy we hope to never use. I have personal experience on how this treatment could have helped me throughout a few of my big injuries as a professional athlete.<\/p>\n

The fact is that Lochlan\u2019s mum and dad both spent many years throwing themselves down the mountain, charging and pushing their limits. Knowing our son will likely follow in our footsteps in some way or another means as his parents we want to support and protect him as much as we can.<\/p>\n

So opting to bank his cord blood cells means that we know we are giving him every chance physically in life to overcome adversity should he need it. We were so impressed by Future Health\u2019s professionalism and the phlebotomist they sent when i gave birth was both incredibly efficient and empathetic to the emotions we were going through in the last stages of birth and I hardly noticed her presence at all.<\/p>\n

I am writing this because so many people were interested in the reasons we opted to do this and I can\u2019t recommend Future Health enough!<\/p>\n
