Why is she thanking them? What did she look like before the transplant?!?

Last night my 3yo son was putting heart-shaped stickers on people's shirts. I asked him what they were for and he replied "If you have a heart on, that means you love somebody."

jess [email] said at 2:14 PM 12-02-2005: I am obsessed with all gross body stuff. It's seriously what I think about when I don't have anything else to ponder. (Well, not just the gross stuff, but the body in general. Most fascinating microcosm!)

jeff [email] said at 3:09 PM 12-02-2005: I believe the transplantee's face was seriously mauled by a dog. I have to wonder how an operation like this will take since there's such a high blood vessel concentration in the face. It's not like they can go in there and re-connect them all.
There was a hand transplant performed in the last decade using an Australian inmate that's pretty fascinating too. Dude wasn't taking his immunosuppressants, so no idea what became of that.
