Eman Ahmed, known as the heaviest woman in the world, lived that nightmare at 500 kilos.
Her life changed when a medical team decided to carry out an unprecedented operation: transporting her from Egypt to India on a cargo plane for life-or-death surgery.
What happened next was a true miracle. In just three months, Eman lost half her weight.
She managed to lose 250 kilos, sat up again, and regained the hope she thought she had lost. However, fate had other plans.
Despite her incredible fight, her body, worn out by years of illness, could not withstand the final complications, and she passed away from kidney failure and heart problems.
“Eman did not lose the battle against weight, she won it. But her body had already suffered too much,” her loved ones commented.
It is the story of a woman who refused to give up despite being trapped in a “prison of flesh” for 25 years.
