1. Tremendous Invention

I saw it demonstrated on video. Keep up the good work!!!!
2. Back in the 1970's the late Dr. Robert Martin of Pasedena

California was getting quads and paras to walk again by hanging them upside down with gravity boots he invented, suspending the patient on a steel horizontal pole a few minutes at a time, many times a day in his gym. Orthopedic surgeons in Los Angeles County who could do no more for a quad or para, sent them to Dr. Martin who got them walking again. The spinal cord DOES knit back together, but the cripple industry does not want people to know that. The quads and paras Dr. Martin got to walking again, walked in a side to side gait, not a straight upright walk like with this exoskeleton device. Another way to get quads and paras to walking again was developed by Dr. Jeff Goldsmith of Nevada whose team flies all over the world to perform the surgery that takes the vascular omentum of the small intestines and pulls it subdermally (under the skin) to the site of the injury that caused the paralysis. Even quads and paras who had been so for decades began to have feeling in their limbs again. Dr. Julian Whitaker talked about that in his Health and Healing Newsletter long ago.

Probably, the intellectual "cripples" on the lunatic left will call for a boycott. However, those who suffer from a life-altering paralysis will no doubt be thrilled at the chance to regain their mobility. And it's particularly gratifying to think what this fantastic invention can mean to paralyzed veterans in Israel and America.
