coincidence? the operation took place in cleveland. did the face come from the guy killed from head injuries in the auto accident and was towed away to the impound lot for 2 days before the body was found in the car.

did this woman get a man''s face? if so, did the woman already have a mustache?

BRdeckard: She wasn''t worried about a guy being interested in her. She couldn''t go out of the house because people are so shallow they made hateful comments to someone that was injured and trying to get on with her life. People take appearances as who you are. That''s not true. There''s a lot of heart in what society terms as "ugly" people...just as there is no heart in "beautiful" people. How does that song go..."never make a pretty woman your wife." There''s a lot of truth in that. Would you want someone to stands by you in thick in thin or someone shallow that just wants your money and dumps you back in the ditch you came from?

This is so wonderful - that they can even do this. I hope this woman can finally have a chance at life, we take so much for granted. We are so much more than what we look like - yet that remains so important. I hope this woman can adjust and understand how beautiful she is, no matter what she looks like. Blessings and peace to her. And to her donor !

The jokes are tasteless. I have a sense of humor too, but you people are a little crass. Anyway, why report this story when only a portion of it is allowed to be known.

if the woman turns out to be a dog will she sing "How much is that doggie in the mirror"?

Maybe Jeff Triplett (the referee who got drilled on the Jets fumble recovery TD last Sunday) can get his repaired. He took a great shot from Bills center Duke Preston----------about the only good block he has made all year. Oh, well, I digress.......
