Malee was diagnosed with a brain tumor at age nine. This causes hormonal imbalance that keeps her growing. Every 3 months, Malee has to inject a nose worth more than $ 2,500 to control her growth. The expensive treatment made her family difficult.

Before his death, Malee lived with his family in Bo Rai district, Trat province, Thailand and worked at a rubber plantation. The height not only entailed health problems but also affected Malee's spirit when she was teased by her friends, afraid of not being able to marry because of her "abnormal" height and had to go through a time of loneliness when going to school.
