Here is a link to a great website for Spinal Cord Injury. There are two different downloadable sizes of the program. You'll see it as soon as you enter the site. It's really an amazing program and worth watching, if you can download it. Best of luck.

Re: Download link to website with PBS Stem Cell Program
Thank you so much! I missed the program and thought I'd never get a chance to see it. It was so easy to download and watch at my own convenience.
Amazing, this has got to be the CURE for BPI for sure!!!
I hope everyone else takes advantage of this and downloads it and watches it.
We should be writing our Congressmen to expediate the release of goverment restrictions on stem cell research! In fact here's a link to do just that, from the Christopher Reeves Foundation.

If you're downloading it to a Mac with OS X, there is a problem with the Windows Media Player for that operating software, but I believe it work on OS 9. For a PC it should work with the Windows Media Player you've got, if not you might have to upgrade to the latest version.
It should open automatically if you right clicked the link and 'save target as' on to your desktop or somewhere you can find it again later, and then clicking on the saved file should open the Windows Media Player program to view it. I've got a Mac now, so I had to borrow a buddies PC to view it. I hope you get a chance to see it, it'll blow you away, it's the future for sure.
I've been in contact with Dr. Carlstedt in the UK, who's mastering the re-implantation technique to put the avulsed nerves back into the spinal cord, and he is also in the lab working with stem cell research for an answer to this all. I'll post more in a couple of days about some more info I've got.
Hope it works out.
