There's no other little boy in the world quite like Tomm Tennent.

He was born with enough skin for a five year old child.

And medical science had not seen anything like it before.

His parents were shocked but right from the start they decided they wouldn't hide Tomm.

Now a whole town's rallied behind them because this 19 month old boy has proved to them
as he will prove to you that beauty is more than skin deep.

Good god... poor kid.

Good god... poor kid.

Doctors in Australia believe his condition of having too much skin will be less severe as he grows into his skin with age.

I'm wondering if an operation could be performed as he grows older to reduce the amount of skin and to stretch out the skin folds, (rather like facelifts where the skin is carefully lifted up and gently stretched over the muscles.)

It must take a long time to bathe him and cleaning inbetween all the skin folds. His balance and gait also looks affected by the excessive skin making it difficult for him to walk normally.

Poor child, I feel sorry for him. His loving parents have unconditional love for him, regardless of his appearance.

This condition is extremely rare and he's the only child to ever be born with this unique condition.

I wonder how he looks today. This was from the mid 90's. He should be around 20 now.

I searched online and found a Tomm Tennent from Melbourne, Australia. It looks like he grew into his skin after all!



When I was little my mom always bought shoes that were slightly too big because I'd grow into them. God gave Tomm a wrinkly suit and he ironed it out!

What a cute little boy! And his parents are wonderful... I wonder how many parents these days would simply have chosen to abort and kill that baby. :/
