I'll upvote you for this.
This is an inspiring story that highlights how wonderful modern science is. This is a real affliction people face and is no laughing matter. Life changing is understatement. I'm happy for this women and am sure it's just the start of making others people's lives better.
That being said..... if you can't find some humor in the idea of it, you're a freakin' stick in the mud. It reads like an Onion headline, that just opens itself up to countless punchlines.
When did we as a society decide we can't both celebrate something and find humor in it as well?
