First US Face Transplant Patient Marries

A man who became the first in the US to receive a full face transplant has married the woman he met at a support group.

Dallas Wiens, 27, was severely burned after a high-voltage wire touched his head while he repaired a church window in Fort Worth, Texas, in November 2008.

He spent months at Parkland Memorial Hospital, before undergoing a face transplant in Boston.

Mr Wiens met his new bride while they were at a burns support group

It was at the hospital that he met Jamie Nash, 29, who had suffered burns to more than 70% of her body after a car accident, in 2011.

The couple were married at Ridglea Baptist Church - where Mr Wiens was injured - in front of more than 150 people.

"I am blessed beyond measure that you have chosen me, and I love you with all my heart," the Dallas Morning News quoted Mr Wiens as saying.

His bride said: "Things happened that I didn't think ever could be possible for me, and you made them possible.

"You gave me hope, and you gave me tender love that I will always treasure."

The wedding was followed by a reception at the Flying Saucer in downtown Fort Worth.
