A woman is "growing a second skeleton" due to a rare genetic condition where knocks or falls may lead to her growing more bone.
Carli Henrotay's back is a "sheet of bone”, her jaw is “locked” and she has to use a wheelchair due to fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) – a tissue disorder characterised by the abnormal development of bone.
The 27-year-old, from Missouri, was diagnosed when she was five-year-old but she has not allowed it to hold her back.
