As I'm recovering more, I have noticed help and recovery process slows down? When I see videos and updates USA seems way ahead of various treatments and rehab! Shame that when you are showing signs of improvement! Nothing is done? But where there's life, there's hope.

Don't feel bad, I don't think your country is any slower than ours. One would think with all the new technology and massive amounts of research/clinical trials that something would break open for us. I still believe one day we will regain something, don't know what but I have to keep the hope. Its the only thing that keeps me going in life. Its that one chance to possibly walk again. I'll keep dreaming but it feels good to think about it.
Wish you a Happy New Year. Better days are coming for all of us!

jb I agree with joemonte. England has a good research team as well. As of now, there's no treatment available to the public but it's in the works and it's coming. The USA is doing good with their epidural stimulation research but I know the UK has some good stem cell research going on too.
