BigSqwert Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Click the link to see this man's face. A patient going by "Rafael" poses after undergoing a face transplant at Sevilla's Hospital Virgen del Rocio on May 4, 2010 in Sevilla. The second patient to have undergone a face transplant in Spain appeared before the media to thank the family of the donor for making the surgery possible before leaving the hospital. Rafael suffers from neurofibromatosis, a genetically inherited disorder in which the nerve tissue grows tumours. These tumours had severely disfigured Rafael's face. via Andrew Sullivan I do not know if I'd want to live on if it were me. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Is it horrible of me that he reminded me a little of Vincent Schiavelli? http://geraldofreire.uol.com.br/vincent_schiavelli.gif I don't think I'd want to live if I was that disfigured, but I guess you never really know until you're in that situation.

He's up thanking people for his new face, and that makes me feel very happy for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 If he's happy (and I'm guessing it's better than it was), sure, I'd probably be happy enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
