DNA plays nasty tricks, sometimes.

"Brian Chadaris has grappled with an undiagnosed skin disease for more than a decade. What started as seemingly harmless rashes on his bottom developed into aching, cyst-like growths that have spread across his face, neck, back and groin. The large bumps, which cause pain and pressure as they grow, unfailingly become infected, making surgical removal necessary."

There's always somebody worse off than you.

(There's a picture gallery too, (link at top of right column next to the story) but it's pretty disturbing.)

I really don't know what else to say about this. I just hope that Sally Jesse Raphael doesn't get ahold of this kid. His life is difficult enough.
