Half Man - Half Tree

There is just one part of this man’s massively disfigured body that isn’t ravaged with gnarled tree-like growths.

And today there’s a glint of hope in Dede’s clear brown eyes, because his 20-year nightmare could be coming to an end.
Dede’s grotesque limbs are caused by a virus and rare immune system disorder, but Dr Gaspari believes they’ll disappear with a high dosage of Vitamin A.

Even though this man is literally a freak of nature, he still has stong sense of dignity about him.

Ah yes. I remember him. Met him the other day and shook his hand...he gave me splinters...it was awkward.
