I’m a model with a 100-pound leg — being different is beautiful

A rare condition has given one courageous woman a leg-up in life.
Mahogany Geter, 24, was born with an enlarged leg — now weighing about 100 pounds — and believes her difference is part of what makes her beautiful.
Geter lives with lymphedema, a chronic disease that causes parts of the body to swell due to lymph nodes that aren’t properly draining bodily fluids — meaning she’ll need regular physiotherapy and massages to drain the excess fluid for the rest of her life.
Though Geter’s lymphedema has affected the entire left side of her body, it’s her leg that bears the brunt of the condition.
