the sad news - Violet didn't make it. unfortunately the entire lower half of her face was removed, and I was unable to recover enough tissue to give her any real quality of life. sadly, Violet is no longer with us. there is good news to this story though. Violet was kind and loving and giving enough to sign her organ donation card, and I happened to have a very needy patient.
I am sure you all remember Penguin. in an especially cruel attack Penguin lost his eyes. both eyes amputated he was beginning to learn to rely on his other senses. but with Violet's loss, Penguin gained a new lease on life. I'm proud to announce the first ever inter-species eye transplant. this is very experimental and Penguin will have to be checked regularly for rejection, he may need the help of glasses, we won't know until he's fully healed. but he can see!
SUCCESS!!! Please sign your organ donor card.
