Q: 

My son is 32 years old and suffered a anoxic brain injury last year. Is there stem cell treatment that would help him have a better quality of life?

Deb - Support groups and patient advocacy organizations can be very helpful in reaching others who are dealing with the same situation and gaining more information and support. There aren't many specifically for anoxic brain injury, but there are several for brain injury. Here are some links to help you:
