So even if adult (ethical) stem cells prove more effective and practical, California is still forced by law to keep using aborted fetuses... Laws can be changed, and hopefully they will be changed when people find out the stem cells can be harvested from the nose!
Unfortunately, it will likely have no effect on thse liberals. You see, they don't care about helping people or about accurate science, just about their control-freak, authoritarian political agenda.

Some of the Portuguese patients who have undergone the surgery have been able to move their legs or walk with a walker. Several others have regained bladder control.That is AMAZING. May God bless those doctors and researchers who have developed this procedure. And may God profoundly bless Travis.
Simply AMAZING.

This young man is going to need all the strength he can get; regaining sensation in atrophied limbs is excruciatingly painful, I understand. The rehabilitation is grueling as well. But, it will be well worth this price, to regain some measure of independence.
