MUMBAI: More than a month after she became the first person to undergo a hand transplant here, Monika More (24) will get discharged from the hospital.
“Her dream and, indeed, all dreams have come true,’’ her mother Parvati told TOI on Friday. Monica underwent a marathon transplant on August 20 at Global Hospital, Parel. “Monika has been recovering well and undergoes physiotherapy daily though I have been unable to meet her due to protection measures against Covid-19,’’ she added.
Monika had lost her hand in an accident at Ghatkopar railway station in 2014 when she was 17.
