Samantha Jackson

Samantha Jackson is a mother from Leicestershire who has been battling the world's largest known hernia for 18 years. The hernia, now the size of a watermelon, has caused her significant pain, immobility, and dependence on carers. Initially deemed too risky for surgery due to her weight and health, she found hope when prescribed Mounjaro on the NHS, which helped her lose nearly four stone, bringing her closer to the BMI target needed for life-changing surgery.
