You could use a 3d printer for parts of the skull I suppose. Which I wouldn’t be surprised if that were common practice. But the brain itself cannot be easily operated on. Too much is unknown, and tools aren’t small enough to really get down to it.

I imagine much more would be known about the brain but not many brain surgeons and researchers are able to poke around in live, functioning brains.

That’s the big problem. They are afraid to even dissect a minute piece because they have no idea what effect it will have on a person. They do it in dire situations.

My cousin’s sister in law has the human version of mad cow disease.

She found out last week. It’s devastating to say the least!! 300 people a year get it and it is a death sentence.

They thought it was huntingtons but i knew it wasn’t because it was moving way too fast. She will be dead in 4 to 8 months, doctors said, and the symptoms suck.

My prayer is that she doesn’t know what’s going on, though the family will.

I read the cause but quite difficult to understand. Comes down to one gene multipling too much and destroying brain cells.

You are right. It’s going to be very hard to cure.

I am selfishly hoping in 5 or 10 years they can “fix” me and I can live a more normal life for the duration.

But the soldiers, that’s why they need to rock n roll. They deserve our very best.
