if you want to prevent stem cell research b/c of the potential life you are supposedly protecting, why not these potential babies who are prevented by IUD?

My opinion is that an embryo sitting in a petri dish somewhere is not evan a VIABLE CELL either.

I'm specifically AVOIDING splitting hairs, if you'd notice. sm
I'm saying what my opinion is regarding the viability of an embryo (as post-implantation), but perfectly willing to grant that it might be pre-implantation as well.

??!!

does anyone of those facial hairs like a mustache? if so, how do you treat it? sm
what is a fast solution and a long-term fix? thanks!

splitting the assets...
What about the son? Is he also deceased?
In your former post you did not mention that your brother is deceased.

Could you not HELP in locating the children of your brother? Did you not have ANY contact with them?

Strange, strange!

See below excerpt from your former post...

'....his son and I was the only 1 left (not counting my brother's children) so the money went exclusively to me.'
