      I freaking hope so.

      My joints are doing A-OK. I have freakishly good health for how little I care for my body. This is genetic. But unfortunately not all of my family has the same awesome genetics, because, y’know, we don’t dabble in incest. So my partner has way weaker joints despite being a few years younger than me and I hate it because I want to see her happy and healthy for the rest of our hopefully long days together.

      If this actually works, it could change our entire future together, because one of her knees is shot and may well require a wheelchair in the future.

    After 3 decades and about 30k miles of running I have 2 hips and 2 knees that could use this. I’d be a self-contained A/B test.

    I have a sibling who grew up having 10+ major reconstructive joint surgeries due to congenital issues. That kept them out of a wheelchair, but they were recently told by their current specialist “if you make it to 35 without needing a hip replacement, you and I will high five” (verbatim).

    This would be HUGE.
