An Indonesian man whose life has been ruined by strange roots that sprout from his hands and feet is hoping a US doctor can help him.
Dede, nicknamed "Tree Man", has been treated like a freak show because of the horn-like growths.
He was sacked from his job, his wife left him and he was shunned by his neighbours.
The 35-year-old, who only has one name, is unable to work because he cannot use his hands and lives in poverty with his two teenage daughters.
