    As I understand the healing process, the face will become an amalgam of the donor and the recipient due to bone structure. Amazing to think he may recognize himself more as he heals and gains function.

      The donor , can't be thanked in this life . As I can only assume they are no longer alive.
      However, the family of the deceased must have given their permission , so they should be thanked.
      Not everyone who grieves a very close loved one is able to make this kind of decision with ease .
      Appreciation is praised , not condemned , I'm sure .
