The case of Jemma Doran has ended up in all the newspapers , even in Italy, and represents an absurd fatality: you probably already know her story, or not.

I waited a few days to tell you about it on this blog, because Jemma’s story should teach us to accept our body.

But on the other hand it was practically impossible to think that such a thing could ever happen .

In fact, Jemma is a 28-year-old English girl who decided to go on a diet a year ago.

She started eating healthy, cutting down on portions, and joining the gym.

She started losing a lot of weight , her life changed for the better, her weight loss was defined by herself as amazing, she found a boyfriend.

Too bad that the weight loss was surprising, but due in part to a form of malignant neoplasm in the tonsils.

If Jemma hadn’t undergone the stress of diets and gymnastics, according to the doctors, on the one hand she would have quickly realized that the weight loss was due to the disease, on the other hand she would have been stronger to fight it.

At the moment, Jemma has gained weight to support the treatment physically, learning to accept herself for who she is, but with the fear of not being able to overcome the pain that has hit her.

Incidentally, Jemma has launched a fundraising campaign to support her care .
