Hope!! There is Amazing Hope!
Check this out! Thea WILL walk again. I know it.
"A neurologist who heads a special spinal cord injury treatment team at the Egas Moniz Hospital in Lisbon, Dr. Lima oversees a group of surgeons in the harvesting of patients' stem cells from their noses. The cells are then transplanted into the sites of the spinal cord breaks."
Translation....paraylzed people are walking!! This is a major medical breakthrough! Get off your Ass America!!!
Stem cells are just cells that don't have a job yet. They can be found in the bridge of your nose. This is why after you have a cold, your sense of smell/taste comes back. Those stem cells were there to regenerate and heal you.
Insert those clean slate cells into a severed spinal cord or a failing heart and they take on the identity of the cells around it. No fear of rejection cause it's your own cells!
(in the case of the heart, stem cells were taken from the patients bone marrow)
I'm learning something new...this is fun!
