    Replaceable Body Parts

      I read about that earlier today, quite a fete. I still have my legs thanks to 3 artery replacements, minor to that surgery but replacement parts are wonderful.

          Wonderful, one can only hope they will allow further in depth stem cell research in this country.

              I was recently diagnosed with arthritis of the spine with disk extrusion. Maybe they could work on this for a replacement.
