A 2005 paper published in the National Library of Medicine studied 1840 ribs in 392 patients and found that the ribs regenerated in an average time of 3 months. (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3489251)
"... but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man." ~ Gen 2:20-23
Sometimes, God will have us give up what we think we need in order to meet an actual need; in the end, only to have what was taken restored and our lives more full and abundant.
