Brief summary: This trial will study the safety and efficacy of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of Spinal Cord Injury.

Detailed description: Studies have shown that stem cell treatment is safe and efficacious for the treatment of Spinal Cord Injury (SCI). This patient funded trial aims to study the safety and efficacy of intravenous and intrathecal delivery of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) for the treatment of SCI. The total dose will be 100 million cells. Patients will be evaluated within one month pre treatment and at 1, 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 months post treatment for safety and efficacy.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Medical condition that would (based on the opinion of the investigator) compromise patient's safety.
* Continued drug abuse
* Pre-menopausal women not using contraception
* Previous organ transplant
* Hypersensitivity to sulfur
