That’s easy for someone who doesn’t wake up in the middle of every night sweating his buddy getting blown up by a grenade to say.

Some memories are just too horrific. Memory loss, though frustrating, is a small price to pay.

I don’t think this treatment should be used to erase memories that are merely bad. Those memories can and should be coped with.

The prospect of being able to erase crippling memories of horrific events is a good thing. I’m fortunate enough to have partial memory loss; enough to be able to cope. The memory loss is often a big hindrance in my life, but it’s more of a blessing than a curse. I highly recommend it.
