I was with this story until I read his desire is to get well enough to be able to kill things again.
Find a more worthy patient, there have to be plenty out there.
ps. He's not hunting for survival, he's hunting because he likes to kill things
and why is a doctor needing a patient for pioneering surgery charging them $10,000 ?
- Raphmedia 11y agoFrom the article: “I don’t think shooting from the car is very humanitarian” This should be enough to let you know that this man likes to hunt and not to kill.
- trhway 11y ago>Find a more worthy patient while i share your sentiment toward people who like to kill, it seems to be a cornerstone of medical profession is to not differentiate patients on their "worthiness", and i think that principle is one of a few real achievements of our species. Wrt. the article itself - sound like a great stuff. As an engineer and an arm-chair surgeon, i wonder though why just surgically connecting the spinal cord back and injecting a ton of anti-inflammation doesn't work (anti-inflammation does seems to help a lot when administered immediately after the injury to prevent the scar tissue forming and to prevent the inflammation squeezing the cord ends and thus allows for the much better chances for the cord to repair naturally)
- abakker 11y agoWhy would you put the desire to hunt even on the relevance scale for _any_ medical treatment?
