They said Cordlife’s stock price dropped like 40% after the discovered leak. Wow.

Mine is stored with them as well but I have not received anything from them.
Mine was in the confirmed affected tank. Just trying to find the other parents. Based on my experience in the lab, should be all around the same birth month/year (depending on tank size).[/quote]
They informed you? Via what mode? -
Are they going to audit all?

Funz, yours should be many years liao. If everything is fine, you have intention to continue? Usually till when…the last was paid think for 5 yrs if not wrong. I was thinking should I continue or not.

I am sorry to hear that. We received an email from Cordlife informing that my DD’s stem cells were not stored in the affected tanks.

We have another DD’s stem cells with StemCord. We purposely store the two kids’ stem cells with two different companies to diversify the risk as we were afraid such lapses could happen one day.
To be honest, after the report came out, our confidence and trust in Cordlife have dropped. In the US, there will likely be a class action suit and the damages awarded are likely to be very punitive. -
For those who need it…it is really sad for them. Handling those stem cells is more than bz.

They informed me via email (the same email that keeps asking me for the annual fee payment before his birthday). There are 2 versions of the email - my specifically said the sample is in the affected tank. The rest got a more generic “still investigating” email.
Mine is stored with them as well but I have not received anything from them.

The sample is stored only up till the child’s 21st birthday. Yours haven’t reached 21 yet so maybe affected. But no news (yet) is supposedly good news lah. PM me if u want the link to the Telegram chat. -
Dd seems to be very adamant with her choice of cca next year. I checked and need stay back 3 days of 3 hrs/session if have syf etc. I was trying to dissuade her telling her that it will be too tiring for her, she will be in pain and may not have enough time even for homework. She sobbed, using few pieces of tissues to cover her eyes during our conversation at dining table then went to bedroom and locked the door to cry. Locking door is not a habit in our family. When we talked again…she says I have stopped her ballet and also cca that she loved. I can only give in coz I dont want her to feel I have taken away things that she wishes to do. I know there will be audition…

If your daughter wants it so badly, then I would let her try. I remember being very upset over a similar issue too, and if she wants it so much, you can use it as a way to get her to be more disciplined overall. If she doesn't make it through the audition, then the issue will end. But if she does get into the CCA, it's a good opportunity to sit her down and work out some understanding about how she is going to make time for it as well as keep up with her studies. It may require sacrifices in some areas of her leisure time, social life, etc. It will be good to have the conversation earlier, while she is happy to get the CCA, and before she has already fallen behind in her schoolwork. Also spell out the consequences of falling behind too badly - in fact, if her schoolwork suffers too much, the school may also ask her to drop the CCA. There is no benefit to her, or the school, if she does well in CCA and badly in schoolwork. So she needs to understand that she has to keep up in her schoolwork too, which may mean a more regular sleep schedule, less phone/computer time, less wasted time overall, learning to focus and finish her work more efficiently, etc.

Actually, it will be good to have this conversation whatever the outcome of the audition - start the year right.
