I'm not sure if this is right for debate so I'll post this here. If I'm wrong, I know a wonderful mod will put it in the right section
 Doctors are going attempt a radical new surgery: a total face transplant. They're going to take the face of a dead person and put it on the face of someone (as of yet not selected) whose face was horribly disfigured in some accident. You can read the article here. When I saw this I was like "Holy crap" and actually felt a little sick to my stomach. Is the desire to look nice worth risking your life? And then the whole thing about it being the face of a dead person... I think that's effed up. What do you guys think? |

QUOTE(gigiopolis @ Sep 22 2005, 9:20 PM) rinchan089 - Excellent link! Should open some eyes to the operation.  Thanks! I had just seen the show on Discovery Health Channel like a week and a half ago and I see this thread! lol And, really, if people actually read anything I or a few other members have said, they would be for the procedure as well. I think they're just saying what all their friends are saying... You know, mob mentality. I didn't really have an opinion on this topic before I saw the show but I thought it would be unethical for someone to have someone else's face. Then they described the procedure and showed the one sucessful version of it and how they plan to do it and everything. When you think about it, putting anyone else's body part on someone else can be seen as unethical. Doctors are now performing hand transplants. That's a dead guy's hand the patients are now using. But, I don't think it matters to them who's hand it is, as long as they can do everyday things. I bet that if you didn't have a face, you would want the surgery too. I would post the picture of someone waiting for the surgery on here but I really don't want to have people make fun of her. Just watch the slide show. It'll be very hard to say no to it afterwards.
