Send Jess to Ellen

Hi guys! My name's Jess. I'm 20 years old and I was just diagnosed with gastric cancer. I have a mutation of the CDH1 gene that gives me an 80% chance of stomach cancer, a 50% chance of breast cancer, and an associated risk of colon cancer. I'm having my stomach completely removed on Monday.
My friends made this Facebook page to help get me on the Ellen DeGeneres show so I can spread awareness!
November is stomach cancer awareness month!
Please spare a like!

Am I going to get bashed for calling this a troll?

You should post this on a larger forum, somewhere where a mass amount of people can actually make a difference.

Good luck! I hope the best for you

@LeonZan: I watched it and liked it o.o

But how can you survive without a stomach? Will you get an artificial one?

Most people know that cancer exists, few people actually understand what it is and how it comes about, especially for specific cancers like gastric cancer, which in the case of the OP is hereditary instead of sporadic.

Full stomach removed? Did you lose the Carnival Corpse?

You're going to get some idiots making tasteless jokes, so don't take any of them seriously from the get-go.

Good luck. Kick cancer's ass.
