He's Carlos from Brazil. Involved in an accident and almost had the hand amputated in 2016.
It was sewn into his abdomen & left in for 6 weeks to help it grow enough tissues to support a skin graft.
He was able to move fingers & feel his organs internally.
Surgery was successful.

Blacks have a poorer prognosis with Colon Ca, more proximal disease & distant spread at pick up.
Do not ignore an unexplainable new onset iron deficiency anemia in a middle aged black patient, always check the MCV in a FBC result, hypochromia is a key indicator.
