I think this is great. I also wonder about people who have had to go through all the skin grafts. I wonder if there is any way they can use this technology to improve their situations.

I remember the boy who was set on fire by his father years ago. He was burned so badly he could hardly move after he healed. I believe he did pass away, but I wonder what the technology could do for others who had his level of burns and live with all the scars.

It would be so wonderful if they could get their lives back.

A dear friend was badly chest burned when she was 7. Open flame, flannel nightgown circa 1970s....

The docs did well enough back then. And I'm glad they are better today.

My friend went on to dance (exotic) and did ok.

Certainly not the makings of a morality story, but burn tech has progressed as quickly as possible.

WWII gave us a foundation. Open flames in cockpits act like flamethrowers. US Navy was quick to use woolen face coverings.
