I mean let's be real you can't detach the head from a body and then detach a body from its head and then put those two things together and expect it to be alive. Pierce Morgan talks about the risks involved. There is no risk it definitely will not work and you will just be dead

[@crystalhayes8559]

Oh you better believe it has been done 😂

[@plumdutchess]

So, it's a body transplant. Not a head transplant. I was wondering how that would work, since I figure the way your brain is made up makes you who you are. Getting a new head would change that. But he wants to keep his head and attach it to a healthy body. So it's a body transplant.

[@sidewinder2057]

Doesn't matter, it's just a semantics. You're transferring and planting head to another body, so it might be called head transplant.

[@plumdutchess]

@@sidewinder2057 No, it's not. Because the part the patient receives is the part that's transplanted. He keeps his head and gets another body. If someone gets a face transplant, you wouldn't say the owner of the face gets a new body. It's a body transplant. The head is what makes the person.

[@zacziggarot]

Which he hopefully did turn it down because head transplants seem very risky, you're better off getting a torso transplant, followed by arm and leg transplants. His head works so they should build around that instead of cutting it off. Like you can legitimately do a Frankenstein on me if my arms and legs stop working

[@blackforest_fairy]

​@@zacziggarothow would you do a torso transplant without cutting the head off? or do you mean transplanting the down half of the body?

[@zacziggarot]

@@blackforest_fairy by transferring the heart, lungs, ribcage etc just seems like they should try to do a spine transplant before going full-on head transplant. It doesn't make sense to transplant somebody who is just ahead and is paralyzed from the neck down, if we couldn't unparalyzed them why would they think that they could transplant a head and have it work?

Yeah, I agree, even if you do a procedure like this, you’re still severing the spinal cord by cutting it, so isn’t he still going to be paralyzed.

[@stegewef-zu8jb]

[@SanduTiTa]

that's not how disabilities work. this person's disease affects his muscles, leaving his brain unaffected, meaning that it's no miracle he's able to process sentences and questions. handicapped is an ableist word, you should use disabled instead. people's intelligence doesn't "balance" their disability, people don't have to have something to "make up" for their disability. disabilities aren't even always a bad thing. they may make people unable to do certain things, but that doesn't mean they aren't able to lead a happy and fulfilling life.

[@theflowerhead]

It's "window to the soul" because someone else is looking into you through the window in case you wanted to know. 👍

[@lelisbet]

​@@SanduTiTabeing disabled is never a good thing

[@SanduTiTa]

@@lelisbet and why do you think that? sure, disabilities often give people many disadvantages, but many of those disadvantages would be fixed if society wasn't ableist. also, having many hardships in your life is much more likely to make you a better person than if you barely had any hardships. you could say being disabled is a good thing in that regard because it can make you more sympathetic to other people who are also struggling in some way.
