When asked what superhero I'd most want to be - my answer is Wolverine!  Sure he doesn't have a whole lot of awesome tricks up his sleeve, BUT he self heals!  Could you imagine that?  Making it a little more realistic, imagine never having to take another painkiller or antibiotic!!  Here's a glimpse into the future - an implant that would monitor the body's organs and heal them!  A military sponsored program called Electrical Prescriptions is responsible for the invention.  It would act as an intelligent pacemaker and would constantly monitor a person’s condition. The device could help treat pain, inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease.  How?  By using electrical impulses to monitor and heal.  Ummm, yes please.  I'm injury prone and I get sick ALL THE TIME!
