OK......Here we go...

My name is Luis Torres, 22, T-5 paraplegic
complete (meaning I will not walk or just an
assumption!)... My accident happened 2 years ago when
I was only 19... I am only replying to this because I
became furious when you said, "I am looking for
someone who suffered a spinal cord injury and who
will not walk again to work with me and one of the
mediums."

That got me angry because I AM going to
walk because I AM. My generation is the "Stem Cell
Generation". I will walk it is only a matter of
time. "Timing's everything, Patience a virtue". It
is only a matter of time before I walk.... Only to
complete the cycle for my great testimony of the power
of my lord.... so honestly I don't even need stem
cells to walk only faith but it shall be stem cells so
be it.

Here is my story in a short version...
My friend came up to New York on vacation from college
from Miami Florida. He flew up but was driving back
down". I decided to go back with him... He fell
asleep behind the wheel in South Carolina. I did not
buckle up because I wanted to sleep comfortable. He
went off the road 200 feet and crashed into trees. A
tree also fell on top of the car after we hit covering
it. I broke 3 ribs, shoulder blades, scapula muscles,
and a huge cut on top of my head from hitting the
windshield, and both lungs collapsed...

A passer by saw stem in the distance so
they pulled over. It happened to be an army medic
going home off of work. A second car pulled over
because they saw the commotion. It happened to be a
nurse going to work. The cop happened to be coming
off a break. The accident was around 12 noon. It is
also a blessing that there was not a lot of traffic on
I-95 S on a Saturday morning causing a pile up or
worse.

I spent 2 months in South Carolina hooked
up to every machine possible. When my parents arrived
and spoke to doctors and motioned my paralysis my
parents replied, " So your saying he will never walk"
"If he leaves here only not walking he is one lucky
kid".

I have no brain injury. Have my car.
Just got it 2 years later. Do nothing but "real"
therapy. Electro Stem stuff... The women love me. My
life is great. I appreciate and patiently wait on my
lord to provide for me. I just also have to be ready
for when it comes. So I work hard now.

I support and encourage new patients where
I do therapy. The energy you put out comes back and
revolves. I survived for a reason. This is a short
version of the story.
