just to clarify, i'm not against it, i just thought it a wierd prospect.
not being a surgeon or that i wouldn't know about what makes the face look like a certain person but if it's a transplant and not a skin graft are they not using more than just the skin? and if it is just skin do they need to take it from a donors face or will any healthy skin do?
is the term face transplant just more dramatic sounding than what it seems?
as for the bereaved family thing, if the person has an organ donor card the hospital doesn't have to get consent from the family and with time being of the essence they do remove organs on that basis alone.
imagine being told a family member has died then you go along and their face has been taken off as well.
though i would imagine if it became a commonplace routine it would be specified on donor cards wether you were happy for that to happen.
