Man's thumb replaced with big toe after accident

Translating…

A man who lost his thumb in an accident has had the digit changed alongside with his huge toe.

David Lee, 40, a cobbler from Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, cut through his magnificent thumb as he became once trimming a shoe at his store within the town on 9 January.

He became once admitted to sanatorium, then referred to the Pulvertaft Hand Centre on the Royal Derby Sanatorium.

Really apt one of Mr Lee’s huge toes became once amputated and attached to his hand in a series of operations which took 10 hours.

He has now returned to work.
