1:34Now PlayingA 54-year-old man who has lived almost his entire life without a left hand has become the first person in North Carolina to undergo a hand transplant, 50 years after he lost it. Chavez lost his hand when he was 4-years-old after inserting it into a meat grinder. Chavez is now one of the less than 90 people worldwide to have undergone the surgery. Though Chavez has months of intense physical therapy in his future, he said he looks forward to relearning how to live with a left hand. #InsideEdition
