A man has celebrated the barmitzvah of his liver.
Toronto academic Frank Bialystok underwent a liver transplant in 1998.
Thirteen years later, he decided to mark the organ's birthday with a traditional Jewish coming of age ceremony.
Mr Bialystok, who organised the event with the help of his wife Ellen, said before he read from the Torah: "My pre-owned liver and I are privileged to be here with you as we undertake this symbolic rite of passage."
