I saw this story over on Medgadget about a "very experimental" technology called the Electronic Nerve Stimulation that has allowed a paralyzed woman to stand up and walk. That is just AMAZING! I still hold out hope that someday stem cell research will find a way to actually CURE paralysis, but this is a great intermediate step!
Thanks for sharing the link, I never heard of such a thing before, but it is truly amazing. I'm sure it means so much to those who are struggling with paralysis to have at least some encouragment that they may someday be able to do those things again.
