Blue M&M's will help you walk again... like JESUS

You don't need your wheel chair anymore! OK so you might in the long-term, but maybe not in the way way way distant future.


Well a dye that has been used in Gatorade and Blue M&Ms might help aid in the sloooooooow semi-recovery of people suffering from spinal chord injuries.

Give this some time people, there is always a glimmer of hope that peaks, only later to be "put down" during clinical trials.

"After the spine is injured, two compounds, ATP and P2X7, contribute to killing off motor neurons, resulting in immobility and paralysis.

"I do not know if you remember the tale of the girl who saves the ship under mutiny by sitting on the powder barrel with her lighted torch and all the time knowing that it is empty? This has seemed to me a charming image of the women of my time. There they were, keeping the world in order by sitting on the mystery of life, and knowing themselves that there was no mystery."
