According to the Guardian, Gaby Scanlon from Lancashire, England, was celebrating her 18th birthday last Thursday when she began to feel sick, "becoming breathless and developing severe stomach pain." The teen was taken to the hospital, where she was "diagnosed with a perforated stomach."
Doctors operated immediately, and Scanlon's stomach was removed. Police say she would have died had surgeons not performed the total gastrectomy, the BBC reports.
