This is the most frightening video I've ever seen. It doesn't seem real, but it definitely is.
His disease is called Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (yeah, I don't know how to pronounce it either), which, according to Wikipedia, " is an extremely rare autosomal recessive genetic hereditary skin disorder associated with a high risk of carcinoma of the skin. It is characterized by abnormal susceptibility to human papillomaviruses (HPVs) of the skin. The resulting uncontrolled HPV infections result in the growth of scaly macules and papules, particularly on the hands and feet."
A follow up video has also been posted to show how Dede is recovering after his surgery. You can view that video here.
