"Tree Man" hopes to recover the function of hands and feet, and hopes to get married and start a family

For the Indonesian "Tree Man" Didi, who has been under the spotlight of the media, four major surgeries have recently reignited his hope for life. The massive tissue on his hands and feet, which resembled tree roots, has been successfully removed. If he undergoes two more skin grafting surgeries, his life is expected to return to normal. Encouraged by his current condition, this 37-year-old man has begun to dream about getting married and starting a family. Not long ago, he was still a strange man with growths all over his body that resembled bark, looking half-human and half-tree.
