Your baby could save lives! This Cord Blood Awareness Month, we want to remind expectant mothers that the start of your babies life could be key in saving many other lives. A baby’s umbilical cord contains stem cells that can save the lives of patients with serious blood diseases, such as leukemia, lymphoma, sickle-cell disease, and many others. DHR Health Women’s Hospital offers this life-saving opportunity. Donating blood is free and does not change the normal birthing process or pose any medical risk, as cord blood is usually discarded. For more information on how to donate, call DHR Health Women's Hospital at (956) 362-BABY, or visit our website at https://lnkd.in/gy2R-8Tg. #DHRHealth #CordBlood #Awareness #Donate #Baby #Hero #CordBloodAwarenessMonth #RioGrandeValley #RGV
