Face transplant

HERE is the story of a firefighter who lost his face in a fire. It's worth reading because it's amazing, and also they have more pictures, one of him before the fire, and lots of him transforming and I believe there's a photo of the doner, who died in a biking accident. The doners mother gave permission to use his face. That would freak me out, but, turns out the donated face blends with the patients features to look like some one new. He has more work to go and he's swollen, but, I think he looks pretty dang good.

It's amazing and wonderful for him. I do hope he can live a happy and long life.

That's incredible. Bravo to the donor's family! That would be an extremely hard decision to make.

It is amazing what science and technology is capable of.

I never knew this was a thing.

I must say, what a beautiful gesture to donate such a personal and unique part of a loved one, so that another may have that personal and unique part of themselves within an attainable grasp once more.

Thinking about many things.

Hoping Pat is not sick, just enjoying her warm home in all that snow.

I'm sick of xmas and carols already.

Just what did Mary do on Sister Wives?

Charlie Sheen ---HIV---wow---no kidding---must have been during the WINNING period. Like we didn't see that coming!

And asshole Kim K. wants a million dollar diamond choker for a "push present"!!!! My question is, how many of you ladies got anything for PUSHING out a baby. WTF!!!! Have these people really lost their minds? Do they have any clue as to how real people live? Someone please help me find the perfect words to describe the utter contempt I feel for this self-centered, supposedly privileged twat whose only claim to fame is a video of some fool peeing on her (and other equally wonderful stuff). And she is proud!

And the stupid papers put her on the same page of this horrible tragedy in Paris. Which I won't even get into because there are no words that could explain this in a manner that I could ever fathom.

My brain is totally blown out of shape over all of this. I just feel like crawling into a cave until Jan.2 or the world comes to it's senses.

I feel a little bit better now--not much, but a little.

Hope all of you are in a better mood than I am. This is not a good time of the year for me.

A million dollars worth of diamonds? How about, I don't know, the kid you just birthed? That seems like a pretty good 'push present' to me. Some people... and their egos.
