His new face.


Richard as a young man in 1993 and as he appeared just before surgery in 2012.

I'm posting a link to the article (instead of posting the whole article), because it's a long article, 5 pages long.

The New Face of Richard Norris

For fifteen years, Richard Norris had a face too hideous to show. Then, one day, a maverick doctor gave him a miracle too fantastic to believe. Richard got a face transplant, a new life, and a new set of burdens too strange to predict. What's it like to live with a face that wasn't yours—and that may never quite be?

I read the article- very sad, actually. Thanks again for another kick-ass post, Godrekr!

Nice new face, he'd be quite the handsome devil without having initially blown it off!

Excellent article! It will be interesting to see where he ends up in a couple years. Hopefully not smoking, drinking and perhaps taking better care of the amazing gift he was given. It was quite eerie to see the photo of the young man who was the donor, Josh, and then to see Richard with Josh's face.

"The donor face was applied in one solid piece that included the jaw, tongue, muscles, skin, nose, teeth, and eyelids." Can't imagine being the parents of the donor, Josh. Wow. Seeing Richard in person, post surgery, would be traumatizing, I would think.
