First Paralyzed Patient to Get Embryonic Stem Cells | Scienceray
Discarded embryonic stem cells are being put to  good use in a trial run of injections for paralyzed patients. They have  proved to work in rats and now volunteers are opting for treatments in  hopes of getting their legs back. One such patient is Timothy Atchison  who lives in Chatom, Alabama. He was paralyzed from the chest down last  year in a car accident.
