Hands Restored: Hand Transplant Stories

Inside this volume

Fifty accounts follow patients from the loss that preceded the transplant through the surgery, the immunosuppression regimen, and the painstaking process of rehabilitation — learning, sometimes for the second time in a life, how to use a hand. They write about frustration and progress and what it feels like when sensation begins to return.

Who it's for

For transplant candidates, recipients in recovery, and the families and therapists who support them through a process that is as psychological as it is physical.
