Tomm Tennent was born in 1993 with an extremely rare condition that baffled doctors—he had excess skin, making him a medical enigma. His parents, Geoff and Debbie, were unsure whether to continue with the pregnancy when they first learned something was wrong. Geoff recalled, “We decided what’s meant to be is meant to be.”
Despite extensive testing, doctors couldn’t diagnose Tomm’s condition or offer treatment. At birth, Debbie was shocked, saying, “It was nice to pick him up and hug him, but my heart was racing.” Doctors eventually discovered Tomm had 100 times the normal amount of hyaluronic acid, similar to Shar Pei puppies. They hoped his skin would normalize as he grew.
As Tomm grew older, he faced challenges, especially at school where some kids teased him. However, Tomm stayed positive, saying, “They don’t really care how I look.” By 2003, he embraced his uniqueness, adding, “I see a kind, loving person when I look in the mirror.”
Now 28, Tomm is happily married and lives a content life in Australia. His outlook remains simple: “You make choices, and you don’t look back.” His story serves as an inspiration of resilience and self-acceptance.
Funny story : A man on a fLight to Chicago suddenly found himself having an urgent need to use the bathroom
A man on a fIight to Chicago suddenly found himself having an urgent need to use the bathroom. He headed over to the men’s room, nervously tapping his foot on the floor of the aircraft. Each time he tried the door, it was occupied.
A stewardess noticed his predicament and told him, I’ll let you use the ladies’ room, but on one condition – don’t touch the buttons on the wall! The man breathed a sigh of reIief while sitting on the toilet, and his attention drifted to the buttons on the wall. The buttons were marked “WW, WA, PP and ATR”.
Making the mistake that so many men make in disregarding the importance of what a woman says, the man let his curiosity get the best of him and decided to try the buttons anyway.
He carefully pressed the first button marked “WW” and immediately warm water sprayed all over his entire bottom. He thought, Wow, this is strangeIy pleasant, women really have it made!
Still curious, he pressed the button marked “WA” and a gentle breeze of warm air quickly dried his hind quarters.
This is amazing!” he thought, Men’s rooms having nothing like this! He then pressed the button marked “PP”, which yielded a large powder puff that delicately appIied a soft talc to his rear.
Well, naturally he couldn’t resist the last button marked “ATR”, and then everything went black. When he woke up in the hospital he panicked and buzzed for the nurse. When she appeared, he cried out, “What happened to me?! The last thing I remember, I was in the Iadies’ room on a plane!
The nurse replied, Yes, I’m sure you were having a great time until you pressed the ‘ATR’ button, which stands for ‘Automatic Tampon Remover.’
