Stem Cell Treatment Gives Naples Man Another Chance

First off, Stem Cell Guy would like to clarify- for this post, we are talking about Naples, Florida- not the Naples in Southern Italy where Stem Cell Guy dreams of having his honeymoon (provided he finds a woman crazy enough to marry him).

It looks like Mel Forbis is having a honeymoon of sorts, feeling the effects of his Vescell adult stem cell therapy. Mr. Forbis came to Thailand last May to get treated for his congestive heart failure and is raving about his results. This article also features Dr. Zannos Grekos- the new U.S. Cardiology Director of Theravitae. Stem Cell Guy would like to give a warm welcome to Dr. Grekos who accompanied one of his patients to Thailand recently and became yet another believer in our Vescell stem cell treatment and subsequently joined our family.

Without further ado, here is the latest article featuring a Theravitae patient-


Mel Forbis was running out of time.
He would live, perhaps, another seven or eight months. Congestive heart failure has no sympathy.
Then one evening his son saw a program on The Discovery Channel about adult stem cells, from one's own blood, being cultivated and injected into the heart to grow new muscle and improve heart function.
Because research on the potentials of adult stem cell therapy is in its infancy in the United States, the 72-year-old Forbis checked into Bangkok Heart Hospital in May where he underwent the procedure.
"I feel 100 percent better," Forbis, a retired businessman in Naples, said. "I can walk around and do a lot of things without getting out of breath. Of course, there's a lot of skeptics in the medical field."

Did Stem Cell Guy miss yet another memo? Did Theravitae hire a PR firm in Naples, Florida? The only reason I ask is this is the second story to come out of Naples in just two weeks! If you scroll down a little, you will find "Stem Cell Therapy Shows Promise in Heart Patients," a heart warming story about the 3 Stemmers- three former Theravitae patients together, bonded by a unique, life changing experience- Vescell Adult Stem Cell Treatment for Heart Disease.
