Jessica was 28 years old living in San Diego with her wife when symptoms like constipation, abdominal pain, and blood in her stool began disrupting her life. Prior to these symptoms, Jessica was diagnosed with Lynch syndrome, prompting her to push for a colonoscopy.

She opens up about the long wait for appointments, her determination to self-advocate, and how women’s soccer gave her comfort through treatment. Jessica describes the fear of telling loved ones, the relief of immunotherapy working, and the deepened bond with her wife. Her story is a powerful reminder of persistence, vulnerability, and hope.

Thank you, Jessica, for sharing your story to help others.
