I agree.
I do have to question how true this is....after being paralyzed for 20 years! magically fixing the cord would still not allow someone to immediately stand/walk b/c of muscle atrophy and contractures. Much rehab would be required.

Much rehab would be required.There's nothing in the article that claimed she immediately started to walk after having her spinal cord fixed. The whole thing was arranged at a press conference, which suggested that she wasn't exactly straight out of the operating room.
