Joe DiMeo is using his story to inspire others.
Nearly eight years after a car crash burned 80 percent of his body, prompting the first successful dual face and double hand transplant in history, the TikToker is sharing his story in a new book titled Eighty Percent Gone, One Hundred Percent Strong: Rebuilt with Resilience.
The 27-year-old—who received the face and hands of a 47-year-old donor in August 2020—shared in a Jan. 20 TikTok, “Hopefully the book can inspire other people and motivate them through hard times and get them [through] their cloudy days at least.”
