The spinal cord tries to regenerate itself for a day or two following an injury to it. It then stops for some reason. They dont know why yet, or how to make it start growing again.

This is complete BS.
I'll believe you the day my kidneys repair themselves by some act of God and then I will agree. In the meantime I'll have to wait on the transplant list.

Nonsense. How do you think you'd cope if you suddenly lost the functioning of 97% of your brain?

The brain has a certain amount of plasticity if the damage occurs very early in life or a congenital condition. But this isn't so much a case of 'healing' as just the brain developing in a slightly different way to deal with the damage.
