If anyone has $150,000 laying around, they can pick up Rex. Bionic legs created and developed by a company out of New Zealand. It looks similar to the Japanese creation called HAL.

Check it out....

Have we got that long? The price has got to drop a hell of a long way before anyone I know could afford one.

Sometimes I feel we have to accept what we are, that is paralysed and a wheelchair user, we are what we are, not accepting it can be destructive, not many of us can afford those measures and in my opinion you look more disabled, acceptance is the key word.
