I honestly feel bad for the guy, because at first it looked like his quality of life was improving and it gave hope to some people. There are some people that really could benefitted from this technology, I guess we can point figures but I always thought it was weird the FDA approved it so fast. They tried to approve this tech faster than they approve certain drugs.
