In 1993, This Boy Was Born With Enough Skin For A Five-Year-Old. But Wait Till You See Him Today
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.
