Jess’s Law: In Memory of a Young Life Lost to Cancer

In June 2020, Jess, a bright and aspirational 26-year-old, began experiencing abdominal pain. Despite multiple visits to her GP, she was diagnosed with a UTI infection and prescribed antibiotics. However, her symptoms worsened, and she was eventually diagnosed with stage 4 cancer of an unknown primary. Jess died three weeks later, on December 20, 2020. Her mother, devastated by the loss of her daughter, is now campaigning for Jess’s Law, which would require GPs to review a patient’s case after three consultations if their condition remains unresolved or their symptoms are escalating.
