The brain of Daniel has some scars (post meningitiche) that not
they allow a normal communication among the cerebral cells. This involves
to Daniel a physical and emotional delay that often has convulsive crisis
despite the therapies in progress (that pharmacological recognized in Italy
with the medicine Depakin Crono and that denominated alternative "Spring
Medical" debugging from the Prof. To. Khokhlov in progress in the center of Praga and
not currently recognized in Italy).
1 What can you/he/she be done for taking care of the epilepsy of Daniel?
2 Can Daniel be submitted staminali to transplantation of cells?
If You qual'è the iter to be followed and to which to address centers?
3 Do similar cases exist in Italy and in the World?
If You to that Therapy they are submitted and as they live?
