DOCTORS have removed almost 2kg of warts from an Indonesian man dubbed "Tree Man" because of the bark-like growths on his hands and feet.

Dede Koswara could now hold a pen and could see the outline of his toes for the first time in more than a decade after surgeons began removing the huge warts from his limbs, UK newspaper The Daily Telegraph reported.

Noncon and I watched an hour long documentary about this man in which the dermatologist visited and diagnosed the cause of the warts. The documentary ended w/out the viewer knowing when/if surgery would occur. Despite his horrible affliction, he had such a positive attitude!

He looks really good!
