Tampa, FL (PRWEB) September 04, 2014

On Tuesday, September 9, the Lung Institute will hold an inaugural Stem Cell Social at its Tampa location. The Lung Institute created this event to address how stem cell treatment can help lung disease sufferers. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn how stem cell therapy can help, as well as set up a free consultation. In addition, a number of recent patients will be present to share how stem cell therapy has personally impacted their lives by repairing damaged lung tissue and improving function.

As a leader in regenerative medicine, the Lung Institute has provided almost 300 stem cell treatments to lung disease patients who previously had no hope for better breathing and regaining quality of life. The Lung Institute treats lung diseases including pulmonary fibrosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a progressive disease that causes difficulty breathing, and is the third leading cause of death in the United States.

Led by Dr. Burton Feinerman, a world-renowned physician in the field of regenerative medicine, the Lung Institute offers minimally invasive, and outpatient stem cell treatments for patients with a variety of debilitating lung diseases. Stem cells are taken from the patients own blood or fat tissue. The treatments cue healing processes in the lungs, allowing patients to get back to normal, everyday activities and breathe easier.

Patients from the United States and around the world have traveled to Tampa to receive treatment. We provide hope to our patients, and an improved quality of life, said Dr. Feinerman. Our inaugural stem cell social is the perfect opportunity to learn about this innovative treatment option that can literally change a persons life.

Join the Lung Institute for its inaugural Stem Cell Social:

When: Tuesday, September 9, 4 p.m.7 p.m. Where: Lung Institute, 201 E. Kennedy Blvd., Suite 425, Tampa, FL 33602 What: A presentation by Dr. Feinerman and feedback from his patients about stem cell therapy. In addition, there will be refreshments and three grand-prize winners will receive $3,000 gift cards toward the purchase of treatment at the Lung Institute*! RSVP: Space is limited with only 30 spots available. Please RSVP to (855) 469-5864.

FAITH Stem Cell Research and Human Cloning by: FR. GAMMY TULABING I would like to share with you this article from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.

Questions and Answers

What is a stem cell?

A stem cell is a relatively unspecia-lized cell that, when it divides, can do two things: make another cell like itself, or make any of a number of cells with more specialized functions. For example, just one kind of stem cell in our blood can make new red blood cells, or white blood cells, or other kindsdepending on what the body needs. These cells are like the stem of a plant that spreads out in different directions as it grows.

Is the Catholic Church opposed to all stem cell research?

Not at all. Most stem cell research uses cells obtained from adult tissue, umbilical cord blood, and other sources that pose no moral problem. Useful stem cells have been found in bone marrow, blood, muscle, fat, nerves, and even in the pulp of baby teeth. Some of these cells are already being used to treat people with a wide variety of diseases.

Why is the Church opposed to stem cell research using the embryo?

Because harvesting these stem cells kills the living human embryo. The church opposes the direct destruction of innocent human life for any purpose, including research.

If some human embryos will remain in frozen storage and ultimately be discarded anyway, why is it wrong to try to get some good out of them?

In the end, we will all die anyway, but that gives no one a right to kill us. In any case, these embryos will not die because they are inherently unable to survive, but because others are choosing to hand them over for destructive research instead of letting them implant in their mothers womb. One wrong choice does not justify an additional wrong choice to kill them for research, much less a choice to make tax payers support such destruction. The idea of experimenting on human beings because they may die anyway also poses a grave threat to convicted prisoners, terminally ill patients, and others.
