14 hours surgery!? Bravo to the surgeons. Bravo to the LIVING donor! (from what I can see in the hand comparison, the donor is young!)

OMG!!! ZOMBIE HAND!!!
Although I'm a doctor and I fully appreciate any successful surgery, and the humbling experience the patient and her mother went through ..c'monn you gotta have some sense of humor. So #4, my hat's off to you.

#6 Well my first thought when i saw that "stump" was that she was wall trained in using it. 5 years mate. You have to be a realist!
Picking body parts from dead people isn't something new, neither is a hand transplant. However it's is very good work from the doctors that finally got to do something awesome for a change.
What would impress me more is *if/when* they start to *grow* body parts that are your own and then transplant those. That is a step in the right direction. Can't say that i like to see other people used for spare parts. That just reduce the value of people to a bottom low - regardless of them being alive or not. It is impressive nonetheless, but would be more so when they can actually grow body parts.

Modern medical advancements are becoming rather remarkable, aren't they? Just wait until you see where this will lead us. I'm rather alarmed by the prospect of cutting and sewing people like garments. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad to see this young woman have a chance to recoup from a terrible loss, but the more advanced this technology becomes, the higher the odds are that we'll see living “donors” stripped like stolen cars. I wish I could believe that nobody would be that evil, but I've lived too long and I've seen too much to be that naive.

It pains me to see how far the standards on this site have fallen.
