Shownotes Transcript

Elisabeth Finch was a beloved member of the writer's room for Grey's Anatomy, where she first made a name for herself. Not only was she a talented writer, but she was also living with a rare form of cancer: Chondrosarcoma. For years she "put on a brave face" and managed to maintain a great career while undergoing chemotherapy and a handful of other treatments. But the truth? She was a liar. A fake. A fraud. Elisabeth Finch not only faked cancer and used her diagnosis and "story" to further plot lines in Grey's Anatomy, but she also stole other people's trauma and claimed it as her own.
