I have no idea whether this MSM source, The Indian Express, is merely the Indian version of the old British classic tabloid, The News of the World, or a real MSM source, although from their other headlines, I’m willing to bet the latter.

The thing is that when you see stories like this one:

21-year-old student from Pune and the curious case of her changing hands

Today, her handwriting almost matches her original, but what has left doctors surprised is how the colour of Shreya’s hands, which once belonged to a 20-year-old man from Kerala until his death in August 2017, had changed to match the rest of her skin tone.

Globally, less than 200 hand transplants have been conducted, and no scientific evidence exists to record changes in skin tone or shape of the hand. Doctors say this is the first such case, perhaps.

Oh, but it’s more than just the skin colour. Because the donor was male the transplanted hands were beefier and more muscular. But over time, the hands themselves have become more slender and feminine.
