A young man walks onto the stage of Star in their Eyes, on crutches, with a plaster cast from his feet to his hips.
Matthew Kelly introduces him as Simon.
"It's very brave of you to come out here" says Matthew. "please tell the audience what happen?"
"Well" replies Simon "about a year ago, I was driving with my uncle when we had a really bad accident. Unfortunately my uncle was killed outright, but I survived. I was trapped in the car for six hours before I was eventually cut free."
"The doctors had me in surgery for 12 hours but they couldn't save my legs"
"That's terrible. But I see you have legs now. Are they artificial" ask Matthew
"No, Matthew. While I was in hospital the doctors informed me that my unlce had in fact died, but that his legs were fine and with all the advances in medical science, they could graft his legs onto my body. The operation was a successful. I have been having physiotherapy for six months and hope to be walking fully again by the end of the year"
A huge round applause erupt from the audience
"Well" says Matthew, "that's an unbelievable story. So Simon, who are you be tonight?"
"Tonight, Matthew, I am going to be.....
"Simon and Halfuncle"
