This news is about a woman. She is from Peru. She is 22 years old. She has a tumour in her body.

Her tumour grows for eight years. It gets 50 centimetres long and 16 kilograms heavy. It makes the woman look pregnant.

It makes her life difficult. She cannot work or study. She can only stay at home.

Doctors operate on the woman. They remove the tumour. Everything goes fine. She is going to be OK.

Difficult words: tumour (something which grows on/in your body; this thing is not good and is often removed), pregnant (with a baby inside the belly), remove (take out).
