The procedure will reportedly take 36 hours and require a team of 150 doctors and nurses. The patient would lie in a coma for about a month while doctors connect spinal cords to the head.

You're scum, but you're right, maybe they should do it to you instead. I don't understand how medical advances are a waste of money in any way.

-2012 wrote Back in the day they use to do experiments like this on dogs they kept a dog alive with no body just a head they might of Evan done this to humans. Sounds simple XD

Source? Proof? They kept a dog's head alive with nothing else? Why do I find that extremely hard to believe? What did they "Evan" keep it alive with then?

you haven't done your research mate and its just weird think about it. It's wrong in every way the government did do experiments on dogs as well as humans and monkeys ect.... But your too (asleep) to realise just like most people. But all you really care about is posts on a website that don't mean sh@t buddy

I found that in 1912 Corneille Heymans managed to keep a severed dogs head alive for a few hours while it was connected to another dog.
The severed head was still connected to its own body by nerves though, so not completely severed.
The only problem with your Government conspiracy is that Corneille was Belgian.

However, Robert J. White in 1963 did manage to perform a head transplant with 2 monkeys.
This wasn't the Government doing the experiments though, this was his job.

Also, I've never hated two words as much as 'It's wrong.'
Why is it wrong? If it works and saves lives how could it be wrong?

Does it just feel wrong with your delicate sensibilities?
Get Frankenstein out of your head aand start thinking about the benefits it will have to this man's life if it works.

playing god is wrong and it shouldn't be done its not good for humanity but that's just my (opinion) I think they will fail and he will die my predictions anyway he will still be a freak at the end of it

Why is playing God wrong? Maybe if God did the right thing and saved people's lives, or better yet, didn't give them terminal illnesses in the first place, we wouldn't have to play God.

Personally I think 'playing God' is an insult to these surgeons, what they're doing is far more benevolent than anything God has done for humanity.

Okay I'm not backing up what 2012 is saying but just be careful what you say because yes we are allowed our own unique opinion, but some of us like me are religious and what your saying I personally find quite disrespectful and insulting to God. And when you say surgeons are doing far more benevolent things for humanity than God has ever done. God gave us life...
so it's great to have your own opinion but religion is a risky topic to just start insulting and people will react a lot lot worse than i have. So just be careful
