Cyborg? Having met Ms Okorafor I noticed no non-biological parts.
She was diagnosed with scoliosis at the age of 13, a condition that worsened as she grew older. At age 19, she underwent spinal fusion surgery to straighten and fuse her spine; a rare complication led to Okorafor becoming paralyzed from the waist down.
I would guess that the non-biological parts are where you can’t see them. But she knows they’re there.
