Texts, Emails, Voice Recordings could be used as Wills

Texts, Emails and Voicemails could soon be considered as a valid will by the courts after a radical overhaul of the inheritance laws, if approved by a judge.

Believing that the current laws around wills are outdated and need to be brought into the modern world as the previous laws are “Failing to protect the vulnerable” regarding conditions around older people who suffer from dementia.

The Law Commission (who oversee the laws) are well aware that this proposal may cause arguments, stating that the current rules are unclear and too formal, (40% of people die without making a will) the law would need to be softened to encourage others to make a will.

This would open the door for those who have not left a will, the family can apply to have the intentions that they expressed in a message, email or voice recording be recognised as a form of a last testament. Plus it would allow those who are unable to write a will, either by pen or digitally on a keyboard, will be able to leave one as a voice recording.

Man Replaces Thumb With Toe

A man has had his severed thumb replaced by his big toe. Yes his toe.

20 year old cattle worker Zac Mitchell had his thumb severed when he had his hand kicked by a bull into a fence in Western Australia. Placing his thumb in a cooler full of ice to preserve it but it surgeons were unable to save it and used his big toe in it’s place.

Apparently according to Dr Sean Nicklin, Mr Mitchell was reluctant at first to have the procedure:

“It is a bit of a crazy idea – they [patients] do not want to be injured in another part of their body……even if you have got four good fingers, if you do not have something to pinch against them, your hand has lost a huge amount of its function….A lot of people think their balance and walking is going to be significantly affected which it generally isn’t.”

The Sydney Eye Hospital who completed the procedure, apparently stated that it’s rare to transplant a whole toe with patients usually resorting to partial toe relocations.

Mitchell now requires more than a year of rehab and he plans to return to work once recovered.
