Awesome! It's good to see all our medical "progress" really paying off bigtime.

Astonishing... Medical treatments have come an outstanding amount in the last say 50 years. I am excited to see what the next 50 bring!

And here I thought my country couldn't do anything right... :) That's some amazing progress, maybe we'll someday actually be able to cure paralysis entirely. They essentially made the guy's spinal cord regrow.
