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.

Tom Selleck discussed his financial concerns following the discontinuation of “Blue Bloods,” the television program in which he played the top cop for the New York Police Department for 14 seasons, in a recent interview with CBS Sunday Morning. In addition, the actor is coping with health problems.

At his 63-acre ranch in Ventura County, California, where the meeting was held, Selleck voiced concerns about his capacity to keep ownership of the land now that his primary source of consistent income is coming to an end.

With an emphasis on the value of a steady salary, Selleck—whose ranch was once an avocado farm—frankly addressed the realities of financial stability in the acting industry.

Even though the actor had a long and prosperous career in show business, he told the interviewer that although he might be set for life in general, it would be difficult for him to afford to maintain such a large property.

In response to a question regarding his seriousness, Selleck underlined that he needed to find new employment in order to maintain his lifestyle and control his spending.

Many of his supporters are taken aback by this discovery, since they may have assumed that his long career in Hollywood would have guaranteed him a stable financial future.

HEALTH CONCERNS

Recently, there has been discussion about Tom Selleck’s health, particularly since he finished filming the last season of “Blue Bloods.” His health has been the subject of gossip and worries, especially in relation to his arthritis.

According to reports, Selleck may have arthritis, which is said to cause him a lot of discomfort and necessitated the use of a stunt double for some of the “Blue Bloods” scenes. The Hollywood Gossip reports that Selleck’s management have vehemently refuted these allegations, claiming that the actor is “fit and vigorous.”It’s

Selleck has not officially acknowledged any particular health concerns in spite of these allegations. Nonetheless, he has admitted in previous interviews that doing his own stunts over the years has worn down his body, especially his back. Astute viewers have seen that Frank Reagan, his character on “Blue Bloods,” walks with a limp, which has increased conjecture on his health, according to The Mix.

Remaining busy at seventy-nine, Selleck just published his well-received book, “You Never Know.” He still enjoys his life on his 63-acre ranch in Ventura County, California, striking a balance between his work and family obligations.
