Seven months after receiving the most extensive full face transplant ever completed, 37-year-old Richard Lee Norris has been undergoing a successful recovery – regaining the ability to speak and show expression. The University of Maryland has recently released details on his amazing progress.

Norris, from Hillsville, Va., suffered a severe injury in 1997 when a gun accident resulted in the loss of his upper and lower jaws, along with his lips and nose. According to Norris, he has spent the past 15 years as a hermit, hiding behind a surgical mask and rarely going out in public. Now, he said the transplant surgery has not only transformed his face – but his life as well.

“People used to stare at me because of my disfigurement,” Norris said in a statement. “Now they can stare at me in amazement and in the transformation I have taken. I am now able to walk past people and no one even gives me a second look. My friends have moved on with their lives, starting families and careers. I can now start working on the new life given back to me."

Unfortunately, people will continue to stare at him because of his tracheostomy. But holy damn what a transformation!

God bless science

See what acid or bullet from a jealous lover or armed robber can do to the body. We are scared of such things and especially of terrorists. Meanwhile Jesus advised
"To you my friends I say 'Do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. I will tell u whom to fear: fear him who, after he has killed, has the power to throw into hell. Yes, I tell you, he is the one to fear.'" Luke 12:4-5

Be wise friend, FEAR GOD

^^ Meh. It was probably stupidity considering they said "accident" and not shooting.

Sscience is crazy on many things, both good and bad. In this case; damn good.
I have seen pics of a woman that also got a transplant, the people who get this, get a whole new life.

The cosmetic surgeons are really getting better with the procedure and geting better results. The first successful face transplant was too distorted and weird looking.

Great!one of the wonders of science.

I am very very happy for him.
