Operation on Rejoined Arm Not Needed Says Boy
Everett Knowles 13 of Somerville Massachusetts learned his right arm operation is canceled after progress. He lost his arm to a freight train eight months ago near his suburb, later reattached and rebuilt through surgeries. Doctors say nerves near the elbow must be reestablished to decide full use. Everett attends hospital daily except Saturdays and Sundays for therapy to strengthen arm and elbow movement. He plans no further surgery and hopes to use pay and a garage venture with a relative in South Africa. He expresses disappointment at capture and talks about fighting sentiments with restraint.
