I wish this courageous woman all the very best for all success in this. B & Y Hospital is among the best, and may she achieve the very best. Vaya con Dios, Ms. Hayes.
This is a very sad story and I wish Ms. Hayes every success with her humble hopes to hold her children again, hug her husband again, to wear her wedding ring again. May God bless her and her medical experts in their endeavours. But I am slightly disturbed by the above article’s last paragraph… “… Boston Hospital WORKING on finding a donor…” Are they gonna murder some person to get the healthy arms and feet? A bit like the oul’ grave robbers of Victorian times, stealing recently-buried bodies from graves to feed bodies to Medical centres be dissected by learner doctors? Perhaps Ms. Hayes should really consider the achievements of the Paralympians of London 2012 with their artificial limbs and go with that.
