Save A shocking condition has left a woman with nearly 6,000 large tumours covering her entire body.
Libby Huffer, 44, was diagnosed with Neurofibromatosis Type 1, a rare skin disease that causes non-cancerous lumps, when she was five years old.
The mum from Fort Wayne in Indiana, USA, is thought to
be one of the few people in the world with the condition.
She lived a happy, normal life until her teenage years when hundreds of bumps began to develop on her skin.
