Jamie had to spend 10 weeks in intensive care
An amputee dad has told of his of first "strange" hug with his daughters after double hand transplants - which he's now had tattooed to match the rest of his arms. Jamie Mines, 39, was thrown 13ft from a half-finished metal roof when 33,000 volts of electricity surged through a tin sheet he was holding, in 2016.
"It is weird for them. They were five-months-old when I lost my limbs and they have always known me without. Now they don't really think about it. They found it strange at first as I have never had hands before. The talented footballer of 17 years spent ten weeks in intensive care with some of that time spent in an induced coma. The 39-year-old father of twin girls had his right leg, left leg, and both hands amputated as a result of his injuries.
The operation took 13 hours and involved 30 people. Jamie said: "I went from going to sleep with no hands to having hands. I have started a new journey. I couldn't move them at first. In October 2022, a few months after his transplant, Jamie got his hands tattooed to make them feel more his as he has a number of tattoos across his body. Jamie had to ask permission from specialists in case the tattoo would damage the skin or risk infection.
