Meet Jesús Aceves, a 55-year-old man born with a condition called hypertrichosis, which means he has abnormal hair growth over his body, especially his face. Although married with kids, Jesús isn’t fully happy with his living conditions. He says he and his family suffer discrimination. In an interview, one of his kids mentioned, “People call me names, and they even tell their kids not to be my friends.”

He worked in the circus all his life, traveling through several cities. But now, he’s tired of being seen as a freak. As a consequence of years on the road, he’s been known as The Wolf Man.

Back home and not in the circus anymore, he’s facing another challenge: finding a “normal” job. He needs to support his family since his wife works in temporary jobs.

After several failed job interviews, he agreed to try something he had always avoided: shave his face. He relied on his family barber to transform him, even creating eyebrows and lashes.

The experience was difficult since the face is an extremely sensitive body area, but both he and his wife believed that simply by shaving, he would be able to find a job.

Jesús did several interviews, and it’s confident that now he’ll find somewhere to work besides the circus. If this happens, he must shave his face every 2 days.

Although rare, some conditions aren’t impossible to have. Luckily, people find a way to overcome the difficulties a rare condition brings and strive in life. Hannah Tyre, for example, was born with osteogenesis imperfecta, meaning that her bones break very easily. But her love for makeup made her an internet influencer, reaching millions of followers. We hope that, by reaching the mainstream media, people with genetic diseases won’t suffer more discrimination.

Dad & Daughter Recreate High School Grad Photo After 18 Years – People Look Closer And Spot A Detail They Can’t Let Go

Seeing your child graduate from college or high school is one of the most special moments in your life as a parent.

Those who have experienced it will recall the sense of pride and uncontrollable happiness that arises when your not-so-little one completes a task they have been working toward for a very long time.

Dennis Roach, a Texas father, must have felt ten times better in 2018 since he was able to retake a 2000 photo of his daughter after she graduated from high school, and the outcome made people happy all around the world.

In 2000, Dennis celebrated his high school graduation with his toddler daughter Tori, which was a blessing.

They took a picture at the time, and Dennis gave his young girl a kiss. It was the fitting way to commemorate his momentous day.

It was Tori Roach who commemorated her high school graduation in 2018.

Naturally, Dennis was present to commemorate the event, and he and the other person came up with the brilliant idea of taking a fresh photo of the two of them from eighteen years ago.

In the last tale, Tori was cradled in her father’s arms and received another peck on the cheek.

Her 2000 and 2018 photos that she shared on Twitter were adored by fans. How well it will be accepted was beyond anyone’s prediction.

Under her photo, Tori added, “18 years later.” It received nearly 150,000 likes and 57,000 reposts before becoming viral.

Many others expressed their happiness with the picture in the comments section.

“This is the cutest thing ever,” someone said.

“One of the best pictures I have seen,” said an additional person. I’m wishing you and your family all the best.

“How beautiful…,” remarked a third.

However, the most intriguing aspect of the two images was undoubtedly the element that drew a lot of attention and comments from viewers.

One thing that was particularly noticeable was how little Tori’s father Dennis appeared to have aged in the two photos.

“What is the age of your father?” inquired someone.”He appears to be ageless.”

Another joker said, “I think you froze your father until you grow up.”

Did your dad age at all, dammit?A third made a joke.

Tori was shocked by the amount of interest in her post.

After graduating from high school, she was forced to clarify that her father, who was 37 at the time, wasn’t single.

She also discussed Dennis’s pride with People.

“There were a ton of notifications when I woke up. Individuals had resumed liking, commenting, and sharing. My father was really pleased with himself. Since we live in a tiny town, nothing similar to this rarely occurs. And he exclaimed, “That’s awesome!”

“I feel that not many other people get to experience that,” she continued, “so in a way, it brought me and my dad closer.”
