When you think of your family tree, you don’t usually think of a literal “family tree” do you? Well most people wouldn’t - but unfortunately for one family in Indonesia, they do.

LayGuy » Man Turning Into A Tree
Meet ‘Dede’ - a 35 year old father of two living in poverty in a remote village in Indonesia.
Dede grew up normal, but at 15, he had an accident where he cut his knee. From then on, warts and welts started taking over his body and have simply kept on growing to what resembles “bark like” qualities.
His wife bolted leaving him to look after his two kids. As his condition worsened, Dede became completely dependant on others for even the most mundane tasks in life - such as putting on clothing.
When he cut his knee as a teen, a virus entered his body - HPV. Human Papillomavirus
