[@bobs_toys]

Right? The guy's along the road to being Jesus.

[@DaveSmith-bg2jh]

Won't these brain and spinal implants cause damage to other parts of his body killing him eventually.

Real nice work Onward Medical!

[@USBionicMarine]

People this is not a cure you still feel nothing.

[@blondie-vf5rc]

That's definitely the end goal, but let's not allow the perfect to be the enemy of the good. This could grant freedom to hundreds of thousands of people.

[@lulumoon6942]

I woke up from my 3rd brain surgery feeling nothing below the waist. I want told until a week later that didn't mean I couldn't walk again! Mixed blessings are still blessings.

Incredible. Science at its best.

[@hermanlindqvist7238]

Listen you need to start to link to the sources like the paper and the article pls!

[@bobs_toys]

An interview with one of the people involved is a primary source.

[@leer5858]

He said where the paper was published. Nature. Might have a paywall though

[@hermanlindqvist7238]

@@bobs_toys then you missed the point, I want to read it not verify the speakers accuracy.

[@seanperkins714]

today I tested positive for HSV after having a horrible outbreak, and feel the same way you described in your interview. Listening to you share your overcome experience gave me the glim of hope I needed to hear. I am glad that there is people like you out there who just want to help other people who are struggling with the same issues. Your words gave me the courage I needed to hear today to know that it’s ok. I can still be myself and now I'm enjoy my life the way I am supposed to. it is a blessing i came across you #DrDanjuma,,

[@MerryOlSoulGigglesmith]

Excellent,,,,, but can anyone say CYBERMEN. How will militaries use this?

[@bobs_toys]

To help wounded veterans walk again? Exoskeletons aren't (as) new. This is a different area.

You Will Lose Your Soul If You Choose Any Types Of Brain Or Microchips, etc. These Are Of The Beast. People Please Choose Jesus To Save Your Soul.

[@love2ridejs]

Could this be leading up to Revelation 13:16-18 the Mark of the Beast which receives No Salvation to Heaven through Jesus Christ in the bk of John 14: 1-8

[@ETTe316]

Amen! You Will Lose Your Soul If You Choose Any Types Of Brain Or Microchips, etc. These Are Of The Beast. People Please Choose Jesus To Save Your Soul.

Yeah it's called a walker

Until you lose your mobility, you have no idea what every precious piece of independence means.
