Dallas Wiens Progress. Amazing

This is a local story for me so been following it for a while.

Dallas Wiens was a young father who looked like this until his head touched a power line that he was working on.



He nearly died.

Dr's saved his life but he was left like this.



Dallas received a face transplant.

After a year he now looks like this.



Next step in his recovery will be dental implants.

Pretty amazing what we can do today.

And Dallas is an amazing and inspirational person.

Wow. That is really remarkable!

This should serve as a reminder to us all when we think life sucks. It COULD be worse.

Thanks for sharing the story.
