Dr. Peter Hersh, who lives with a spinal cord injury, was among the first to experience transcutaneous spinal stimulation. “Daily life is easier now,” reports Dr. Hersh. “Brushing my teeth, shaving, grabbing things, holding sandwiches, that’s all easier.” 

He has also seen benefits at work. “Now I can use my left hand to press the shift key on the keyboard. A small gain, but a big impact on my productivity.” The gains affect his family life, too. “I can even play a little piano now with my daughter and a bit of ping-pong with my son, thanks to this treatment and donors like you."

“Spinal stimulation is going to be extraordinarily meaningful for people like me, thanks to donors like you," concludes Dr. Hersh.
