The 32-year-old Indonesian Dede's hands and feet are completely covered with woody outgrowths. At the age of 15, the disease began to disfigure him. Thick growths grew on his body. Roots seemed to grow from his hands and feet. He had to give up his job as a fisherman and earned his living as an attraction for the onlookers at fairs.
In a documentary on the Discovery Channel, Dede was examined by a US dermatologist who suspected a combination of papilloma viruses and a genetic immune deficiency behind the bark-like skin. According to a newspaper report, the treatment has now been started and the doctors surgically peeled two kilograms of bark from his skin. Dede can finally use his hands again and walk without pain.
But the doctors are still not giving the all-clear. The head of the Indonesian medical team is planning two more surgeries. The treatment should be completed within the next three months.

More for you:
"Dravens Tales from the Crypt" has been enchanting for over 15 years with a tasteless mixture of humor, serious journalism - for current events and unbalanced reporting in the press politics - and zombies, garnished with lots of art, entertainment and punk rock. Draven has turned his hobby into a popular brand that cannot be classified.
My blog was never designed to spread news, let alone get political, but with current affairs I just can't help but capture information here that is otherwise censored on all other channels. I am aware that the design page may not seem "serious" to many in this regard, but I will not change this to please the "mainstream". Anyone who is open to non-state-compliant information sees the content and not the packaging. I've tried enough to provide people with information over the last 2 years, but quickly noticed that it never matters how it's "packaged", but what the other person's attitude towards it is. I don't want to put honey on anyone's mouth to meet expectations in any way, so I'll keep this design because hopefully at some point I'll be able to stop making these political statements, because it's not my goal to go on like this forever 
I leave it up to everyone how they deal with it. However, you are welcome to simply copy and distribute the content, my blog has always been under the WTFPL license.
