Have you gotten more difficulties than this man?

Joseph Carey Merrick (5 August 1862 – 11 April 1890)

• He got severe deformities and called as “Elephant Man” out of human curiosity.
• He born normal with no signs of disorder in the first years of life but then at the age of five his skin appeared thick and lumpy, he developed an enlargement of lips, and a bony lump grew on his forehead. He was unable to talk due to facial deformities in the later stages.
• One of his arms and both feet became enlarged and at some point during his childhood he fell and damaged his hip, resulting in permanent lameness.
• When he was 11, his mother died and his father soon remarried.
