It felt 'weird at first ... but then good', says 8-year-old patient after surgery

An 8-year-old boy who lost his hands and feet to a serious infection has become the youngest US patient to receive a double hand transplant, surgeons said.

Zion Harvey's forearms were heavily bandaged but his hands were visible as he flashed big smiles on Tuesday at a hospital news conference. He demonstrated his still-delicate grip and described waking up with new hands as "weird at first, but then good".
