Boy Awaits New Operation On His Arm
Boston December 27 AP Red-haired 13 year old Everett Knowles Jr awaits a new operation at Massachusetts General Hospital that could restore use to his completely severed right arm. Surgeons have reconnected the limb in a series of pioneering procedures since last May 23 after a freight train severed his arm. The planned operation focuses on nerve fibers to advance sensation and movement, with doctors cautious about full restoration and noting nerve growth progresses about an inch per month.
