Sophia Loots
43 year old Sophia Loots, the foster mother of two, lives in the small mission village of Friemersheim near Great Brak River. She was daignosed with Lymphedema after being stung by a mosquito carrying the filarial larvae in 2006. When the larvae from a mosquito bite enters the lymphatic system, they mature into adult worms in the lymphatic channels, causing severe lymphedema in the arms, legs and genitalia - also known as Lymphostatic Elephantiasis. Too embarrassed to go to hospital she started over-eating. For six years she was convined to a double bed and weighed 300 kilograms. In 2011, under the guidance of the nutritionist Christo Strydom, she lost 100 kg and can now walk. Here she poses with the bandages that she must have around her legs on a daily basis.
