The attacker severed his spine, rendering him paralyzed from the chest down, but now, thanks to a new and revolutionary procedure, Darek can walk again! http://www.ba-bamail.com/Content.aspx?emailid=12628&memberid=914545 This could offer hope to so many paraplegics.

My son is in going to a pain clinic here in Edmonton. He starts intense phiso the middle of Nov. He goes three/four hours per day for 3 days per week. He's trying this before going through another surgery. he had to quit the morphine as that stuff was lethal. He was falling asleep continually. I hope this is successful so he can get on with his life!
