From my observation here...
You are trying hard to recruit our approval on your decision making process as you mention your family several times. It would seem you have met doubt and the same disagreement from your family like you have received from us.
What makes you so sure none of us have not been in touch with any of the stem cell centres? Please refrain from making assumptions. I have a sister who is involved with the industry - HAs, CIs and yes the inner ear.
She is Culturally Deaf and she is involved with helping others hear with what residual hearing they have. My sister is quite the asset her company needs and wants - the Deaf opinion.
Please be careful when you toss out your assumptions about us as a whole. I have a strong suspicion you are stemming from personal experience with your family you need to self-project those issues onto us. This isn't quite healthy and not fair for us too as well.
Counselling will help for this.
I would refrain from making broad and sweeping statements like "I may be getting stem cells" from a company and using their name - Nepsis especially when companies do sweeping checks on the internet. Do you think they would appreciate having such misguided statements coming in from you? To read that you may get stem cells from them when they have yet to give one out to a human being when they are just testing on mice - don't do that.
Nepsis has a disclaimer too as well -

Something on this website just triggered an internal alarm, my family doctor shares a large central office with other 10 + doctors. They have a website however it is restricted to patients and no patient information is made public.
This website has a testimonials page with patients' names, ages, emails and some phone numbers shown. Kinda fishy on my part. Hubby says in the USA, some are commercialised and some privatized.
All in all, do your research, deafdude. It is needed.
