New hope for young woman suffering from gigantism

At nearly seven feet tall and 400 pounds, Tanya Angus is rapidly deteriorating. 

"I'm in constant pain," she says. "I'm only 33 years old but I can't walk. It's incredibly difficult."

Ten years ago, Tanya was diagnosed with Acromegaly. It's a rare disease that causes gigantism.

In Tanya's cause, the disease is caused by a tumor pushing on her pituitary gland, causing an overload of growth hormone.

Tanya has gone through three brain surgeries, radiation, and a variety of experimental medications. But, nothing has stopped her growth.
