She said:
"The entire front of our car was crushed. My first thought was my hands. I had a piano competition coming up, so I looked down at my hands. One of them started to crumble before my eyes."
The woman said when her father died, all his organs were donated except his bone which her mother kept.
In her words"
"The only thing my Mom reserved was his bone. She doesn’t remember why-- but she asked them to set aside some bone."

She said she would end up crying whenever she tried to play the piano with her right hand because her left hand had been rendered useless by the accident.
According to her, she went through different surgeries but all to no avail. Doctors would later recommend bone transplant.
She said:
"Only then did my mother remember my father’s bones. When we grafted his bone onto my wrist, the blood started to flow. My hand came back to life. And I could play again."
