Stem cell succesfully treats paralysis

I can't work out how I've missed seeing this [published 27 November] -and sadly it come too late for Christopher Reeve- but it looks like they may have done it. "The woman could now walk unassisted, the scientists said" It's using umbilical cord stem cells so the ethical problems are considerably diminished and the article makes it sound relatively simple ... Let's hope so.
