A 26-year-old woman shared a shocking diagnosis she went through after she suffered a knee fracture while sitting on the toilet seat at her home.&nbsp;

According to a report published by New York Post, Bethany Eason had been experiencing knee pain for seven years and had been referred to a doctor.

The woman was advised to get an X-ray done of her knee. After checking the X-ray, the doctor told her there was "something there" and asked Eason to visit a therapist for treatment, stated the outlet.&nbsp;

In February 2017, the woman was facing extreme pain in her left leg while climbing the stairs. Later when she sat on the toilet seat, her knee bone fractured.

<h2>Giant cell tumour in knee</h2>

On visiting the hospital, Eason was informed it happened because of the presence of a giant cell tumour in her knee because of which her bones and surrounding soft tissue had weakened.&nbsp;

The diagnosis was earth-shattering and beyond Eason's imagination as she had just graduated from college.&nbsp;

"It just shattered,” Eason said, while speaking about her “one-in-a-million” happening. “I felt this immense pain and it was almost like a pop — it was really traumatic," she added.&nbsp;

Eason was informed by the doctors that she needs to undergo both a knee and thighbone replacement because of the tumour.

"I was heartbroken - I used to dance, run and swim and thought I would never be able to do those things again. At that moment in time you don't see a way out - I was told when I had surgery that 99 per cent of patients wouldn't have full mobility after surgery," she said.&nbsp;

Doctors added that the woman will have to learn to walk again and that there is a possibility that she may never be able to wear heels again.

However, defying the odds, Eason was able to regain full mobility. “I said, ‘Well, one per cent&nbsp;can and I can be that one per cent&nbsp;and prove you wrong,’ and I did,” said Eason.&nbsp;

She went through intense physical therapy for seven weeks and worked on strengthening her new leg for a year through home exercises and finally wore her pair of heels.

“I didn’t know what my life was going to look like. Now I can do all those things they thought I wouldn’t be able to — I can kneel and run after my little boy,” Eason further explained.
