However, his resignation, it turns out fruitful hope for healing illness.An American dermatology expert who flew to Dede's home in south Jakarta revealed, has identified the disease.
After examining the wound and blood samples Dede, Dr Anthony Gaspari of the University of Maryland concluded that her illness was caused by a virus named human papilloma virus (HPV). In general, these viruses cause an infection so that these small warts to develop on the body of the patient.
Problems experienced by Dede, according to Gaspari, he only has a genetic trait that figures so that hinder the immune system.Therefore, the virus control "cellular machines" skin cells forming strange warts that grow in large numbers like a tree in his hands and feet.
"The number of white blood cells on self-Dede is very low. I originally thought he was suffering from the AIDS virus. But the number of tests showed he was not contracted the virus so clear conclusion that Dede's condition is something rare and more mysterious, "he said.
Outside of the strange disease, Dede live their lives with a healthy does not like other patients who experience problems with the immune system and both his parents and his brothers no one suffering from such abnormality. "Conditions like this he estimated at less than one in a million people," said Gaspari.

"He will not have a normal body and perfect, but at least the size of the warts on his body could be reduced and he could use his hands. Hose three to six months, these warts will be small and the number dwindled. He will undergo a more normal life again, "said Gaspari.
Dr Gaspari hopes he can get free drugs from pharmaceutical companies. Medications will be administered a number of Indonesian doctors under their supervision. For further examination of Dede's rare disease, the doctor is going to take him to America, but hampered the bureaucratic and financial obstacles.
