Mainly For Brummies But All Are Welcome To Join In The Birmingham Fun & Chat
This an incredible story
This is the place where Brummies used to chat about Birmingham old and new along with anything else that interests us.
We have Quizzes, Pizzas, Local History, News, Politics, Wedding Cake, Plum Pudding, Champagne, Easter Eggs and, above all, Respect for our fellow members.
The article doesn't say why they had to use her own leg bones. I wonder if there might be some alternative, such as ceramics, that they could have used for the backbone and give her a chance of recovering her full legs.
At present i think artificial replacements ,other than bone from the body, all stand at least a small chance of being eventually rejected. Possibly it might be replaced , but i would probably be even more dofficult than this operation. Maybe in the future a completely reject-proof material will be developed
