Patient cured from ALS ?

If this is really true, this is unbelievable. Is this really the first ALS patient that is completely cured ? If so, there is real hope for PD too.

I did some further investigation about the patient. After his first treatment he recovered very well. But recently he went for a next treatment, still clinical phase I. Just before the treatment he mentioned he started to feel he was losing muscle power again. So not a definite cure, but it could be that a repetitive treatment each x months could stop the progression of the disease. Not a complete cure, but very hopegiving for all people with brain degenerative diseases.
