Treeman
Discovery Health will offer television viewers exclusive access to Dede the Treeman and the American Doctor Racing to Cure Him on Sunday, October 5, at 9 PM (ET/PT)
The bizarre growths covering his body have made Indonesia’s Dede Kosawa an international fascination, known to millions as the “Treeman.” On October 5, Discovery Health will go beyond the headlines and the tabloids to present the dramatic true story of a man desperately fighting to reclaim his body and his life, and the tireless doctor completely dedicated to treating him.
Countless news outlets and websites from around the world have featured images of the tree-like warts covering Dede’s body—totally consuming his hands and feet and making him look as much plant as human. Nearly a year in the making, TREEMAN: SEARCH FOR THE CURE provides an exclusive firsthand account of this groundbreaking medical case from both Dede and his American doctor, Dr. Anthony Gaspari.
Watch Dede the treeman after the first skin surgical operation in Bandung, West Java on Januari 2008. Still some step skin surgical operation again to make him more human looklike.
TREEMAN: SEARCH FOR THE CURE airs on Discovery Health on Sunday, October 5, at 9 PM (ET/PT).
