THESE incredible pictures reveal the breathtaking miracle of
the world's first full-face transplant on a modern-day Elephant
Man.
Published for the first time, they show in astonishing detail
how the skill and dedication of a team of pioneering surgeons
transformed the horribly disfigured features of tumour-ravaged
Pascal Coler.
And Pascal tells his moving story to the News of the World
through normal lips he once thought he would never have...
He talks about his escape from a nightmare of deformity—and his hope of finding LOVE for the first time at the age of 30.
Pascal says: "The operation has revolutionised my life. I can live as a normal human being for the first time. People in the street look at me very differently. They no longer stop and stare or shout cruel words.
"Instead I am accepted. I even dream of myself in my new face—and now I would love to find a wife, settle down and have children."
