Phoenix, Arizona — In Phoenix, they are calling it a miracle operation - surgery that re-attached the head of a car crash victim.
18-year-old Marcos Parra doesn't remember the crash some months back - just some screaming.
Technically, his skull separated from his body. The neck bone and ligament were cut. But his spinal cord and arteries were intact.
Luckily, a doctor at the hospital had experimented with a new surgical technique.
In fact Parra is back to doing one of things he loves most ... playing basketball
