FRESNO, Calif. -- A young Fresno, California woman is opening up about her "invisible illness" in hopes of helping others with chronic conditions. Tessa Hansen-Smith has the rare condition of Aquagenic Urticaria, meaning she's allergic to water. She developed the "water allergy" when she was around 8 years old, and it has worsened over the years. "I would come out of showers and have huge welts on my skin, and my scalp would be bleeding after showering," Hansen-Smith said.
