If you haven’t heard or seen this bizarre tale, here is the YouTube view. This story came out in Nov. 2007.
The US doctor who examined, Dede for the documentary would like to bring him to this county for further tests. However, that may be blocked by the Indonesian health ministry. His government is concerned about the stress of him having to give blood and the effect of such long distance travel.

The Indonesian man suffers from a rare skin condition that causes his body to be covered with tree-like growths may soon get help from an American doctor.

Dede, 35, who has gnarled growths sprouting from his hands and feet, has baffled medical experts since the warty “roots” began appearing after he injured himself as a teenager.
