that made me cry,i mean,is beatiful this oportunity with the ones who lost some of their extremities. This is the beginning of something very fascinating :)
This is nice technology, but get real with the dumb comments like, "I'll be sawing my own arms asap!" I'm sure this lady would tell you that she'd give anything to have her sense of touch back, and she's not going to get that.
