A young man walks onto the stage of Stars in their Eyes, on crutches,
with a plaster cast from his feet to his hips. Matthew Kelly Introduces
him as Simon.
'It's very brave of you to come out here,' says Matthew. 'Please tell
the audience what happened?' 'Well' replies Simon 'about a year ago, I
was driving with my uncle when we had a really bad accident.
Unfortunately my uncle was killed outright but I survived. I was trapped
in the car for six hours before I was eventually cut free.'
'The doctors had me in surgery for 12 hours but they couldn't save my
legs.'
'That's terrible. But I see you have legs now. Are they artificial?'
asks Matthew.
'No Matthew. while I was in hospital the doctors informed me that my
uncle had in fact died, but that his legs were fine and with all the
advances in medical science, they could graft his legs onto my body.
The operation was successful. I have been having physiotherapy for six
months and hope to be walking fully again by the end of the year.
A huge round of applause erupts from the audience.
'That's an unbelievable story. So, who are you going to be?'
