A young woman, who has been suffering from a rare form of gigantism that made her gain 336 pounds and grow to nearly 7-feet tall, has been given hope of beating the illness by doctors who have found a cure for the disease.

According to the Daily Mail, Tanya Angus, 31, from Las Vegas, Nevada was diagnosed with acromegaly, a condition causing an overproduction of growth hormone in her body that if not stopped, could kill her.
