Huang Chuncai sits in a wheelchair beside his sister before his second operation to remove his tumours, which currently weigh around 10kg (TWENTY-TWO POUNDS), at a hospital in Guangzhou, southern China's Guangdong province, January 5, 2008.

Huang, a 32-year-old native from a remote village in China's southern province of Hunan, says he is relieved after a part of his facial tumours, which originally weighed about 23kg (FIFTY POUNDS), was removed last year. His second operation will remove another part of the tumours, which weighs 4.5kg (9.9lbs). Huang suffers from Neurofibromatosis, which is a genetic disorder of the nervous system that primarily affects the development and growth of nerve tissues. Pictures taken January 5.

That's terrible. I guess my sore foot isn't really an issue.

Poor guy :( Hopefully they can remove all of the tumor so he doesn't have to carry it around :(

Sometimes we take too many things for granted, by looking at this poor guy we should appreciate and accept how we look cuz no matter what we look like we don't got it as bad as this guy (well, most of us). Poor guy must've thought about all this at the back of his mind GOD WHY ME?

these pics are AFTER part of his tumour was removed

Last picture is the worst. Just look at his body language and the look in his eye. I see a miserable person confined to the privacy of his hospital room to avoid embarrassment. I can be a pretty mean guy sometimes , but I must say this touches me. Poor guy, wish there was something we could do.
