Mark Tatum The Man Without a Face
Mark Tatum was an American man from Kentucky, who became known as "the man without a face" after he became in 2000 the victim of a very aggressive facial fungal infection (Rhinocerebral Mucormycosis). To save his life, doctors had to remove his eyes, nose, upper jaw and all surrounding bone and tissue which meant that he literally lost his face. Tatum was a medical phenomena due to the fact that he survived the infection. Later he got a prosthetic face and he underwent surgeries so he could eat, drink and speak again. Due to his extreme experience, Tatum was highly profiled in the media. He was a courageous individual who served as a symbol of strength for the thousands of people who have lost their health.

Re: Mark Tatum The Man Without a Face
sorry : P But good thing he survived. I would feel very sad to lose my sight and smell, but you would still be able to think, feel and talk. I respect the people who go through all it and find a new way of living. |
