Boy’s Arms Reattached After Haybine Accident
A 13 year old from Shawsville had both arms reattached in an 11 hour operation at the University of Virginia Hospital after a hay combine accident. The limb replantation team led by Dr Gaylord S Williams performed the surgery with blood donated by several doctors. The boy remained in critical condition but the hospital reported he looked good and the procedure was successful.
