Did Christopher Reeve Just Die Too Soon?

Keith Scott-Mumby

Everyone knows the tragic story of Christopher Reeve and his brave journey through quadriplegia, due to a neck injury while horse riding. He became a model hero; a true “super man”. The world knows too of his patient endurance with the stoic certainty that a cure for his condition would be found. He put his faith in stem cells. It still hasn’t happened. Reeve died in October 2004. The final answer could now have been found and could be far simpler than complex and dangerous stem cell therapy. It starts with our good friend, the laboratory rat. This may offend a few people, so if you are of sensitive disposition, please hit your BACK key! (it’s a joke: I expect you instead to honor the animals in this series of experiments and realize we may live far better, through their small tragedies). The fact is that rats have been used to pioneer a revolutionary nerve healing technique that could change everything about nerve trauma and may even, conceivably, lead to the repair of spinal cord injuries. That would be something!
