A woman who was starving to death due to a rare condition has tragically died hours before a lifesaving operation.
Nicolette Baker, suffered from a rare illness called Superior Mesenteric Artery syndrome (SMAS), which meant eating became “excruciatingly painful”.
She weighed only 20kgs after a lifetime of fighting the condition which starves the body of the nutrients it needs, reports CornwallLive.
