That's really sad. I hope he can get the medical care he needs, and not feel so much like an outcast.
Yeah, I feel really sorry for him
You don't have to! If you look at that article you'll see it was written back in 2004. I saw a Discovery special about this guy just a couple of months ago and he is FINE. Medically, at least. They did MRIs and whatnot and found that the tumor on his thyroid basically strangled itself and died back when he was a kid, so he is okay and doesn't need surgery after all.
Also, he is not a veterinarian any more, he had too much trouble getting into town and that sort of thing.
It was a really interesting show, you guys should catch it if you can. He was very sweet. He never sought out the Guiness Record - he doesn't care about it. He said he didn't want to take credit "for something God did".

Maybe it's just because I'm drunk, but that is relieving 
He sounds like a really good guy, who's had a rough break in life.

haha, okay, i was kind of off, but wren got it right! his tumour strangled itself. i have a horrible recall for tv, so you guys better thank your lucky stars that she was here to straighten out the truth
but i feel happy about it too, that man seems so sweet and gentle, it'd be terrible to think of anything bad happening to him.
