Charlotte Hawkins was once a beautiful 20-something with pin-up curls and a clear flawless complexion. But when she discovered a lumpy patch of skin at the bottom of her back, she could never have predicted the devastating outcome. Within 10 years the pretty mum-of-one was barely recognisable, covered in bubble-like tumours all over her body and face. Brave grandmother Charlotte, 64, lives with America’s worst case of the incurable disorder Type 1 neurofibromatosis. Over the years she has grown to accept her appearance, but as a young woman she admits living with the extreme condition was extremely hard.
Charlotte's story will appear in the new series of Body Bizarre, which airs every Thursday at 9pm on TLC.
