Unless of course the person needing treatment
becomes a victim of "Futile Care" protocols.

Surgeons will attempt early next year to mend the severed nerves of young people who have suffered motorbike accidents in the first trial of a simple but potentially revolutionary technology that could one day allow the paralysed to walk again.

Did you say something about nose cells?

If nose cells take the place of infant stem cells does this mean we will be killing noses instead?

If it doesn't involve killing the unborn for no reason at all, I don't want any part of it.

Sounds like it may have some MS potential.

Thanks for the link. This is exciting stuff! AND, you don't have to kill a baby for the cells.

It really frosts me to see all of the money spent on AIDS. I wouldn't wish it on anyone but it is preventable. What are the stats on women getting breast cancer? Pretty bad but activists have hijacked money better spent elsewhere. It seems to me, if you cure cancer, or other autoimmune diseases, you'd be well on the path to a cure for AIDS. Diabetes is another autoimmune disease they should spend more money on.

Much as I disliked Christopher Reeds politics, it would have been cool to see him and other people like him walk. I knew a guy in college that was a quadriplegic from a diving accident, I wonder if he knows of the progress they're making. It would be awesome to see him walk again. Hell, he would have been happy to have one functioning arm. Spinal accidents are hell.
