They are getting so close to curing people who are paralysed as this is a great story about a man who has been totally paralysed from the neck down in an accident 14 years ago and needed a ventalator to breath was treated with stam Cells in India by a female maverick doctor and now his lungs are functioning and he hopes other parts of him will be revived.

Sure offers hope for those paralysed by Trauma, ALS, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's, Stroke etc...

Thanks 6/3.

We had another guy here on the tele this week, who'd been injured in a motorcycle accident early last year I believe who was paralyzed from the waist down and he is now walking again having spent some time in India having stem cell treatment. I've been trying to find a link but so far I'm not coming up with much. I just remember his name was Louey but I have to say it was so heartening to see him walking. Albeit with a walker but I bet he doesn't care!
