Face/Off

I watched the Horizon programme tonight (well, last night, strictly speaking- 17th October, 21:00) on the woman who had the first face transplant. I don't get freaked out or anything very often but that is soooo creepy! I don't think I could pyschologically take having a dead person's face as my own. It would freak me out way too much.

Still, she seems happy enough about it (so far, and of course who knows what she's feeling behind closed doors?) and it has obviously changed her life.

Ethically...well...that's a hard one, isn't it? As I said, I don't think I could handle it and I do, in all honesty, find it a little scary but where would this lady (Isobelle someone, I believe) be without it?
