THE BIG SHOT

-

Brave quadruple amputee Corinne Hutton sits up in bed smiling after becoming Scotland’s first double-hand transplant patient.

The campaigner for the charity Finding Your Feet went through a 12-hour operation at Leeds General Infirmary.

Single mum Corinne, 47, from Lochwinnoc­h, Renfrewshi­re, had her hands and legs below the knee amputated after falling ill with pneumonia and sepsis in 2013.

She said: “I’ve got fingers… and they can move – I shouldn’t be doing that, right enough, but it’s incredible.”
