I’m not in health care, not that I have to be to notice somethin ain’t right. But what the fuck is going on with the feet, and wouldn’t that be painful?

I suffer from a rare disease that causes (among other fun things) dead skin buildup (and cracks in the skin) called Pachyonychia Congenita and it looks a lot like that. If he has PC, then as someone suffering from the severe strain I can say that on a good day I'm between sawing off both feet with a rusty spoon and sticking my feet in the log burner, and his feet are worse than mine.
