  • Summary

  • “Grey’s Anatomy” star writer and producer Elisabeth Finch was apparently going through a lot in the middle of 2019. She remained on top at Grey’s, becoming the de facto writer for any episode dealing with cancer as a subject matter, but she just couldn’t seem to catch a break in her personal life. She claimed she’d lost a kidney to cancer and said she’d been forced to abort a fetus in the early stages of pregnancy due to complications with her chemotherapy. Her latest traumatic experience was dealing with the awful Tree of Life Synagogue massacre in Pittsburgh, the city where she once attended college. According to Elisabeth, she was there one day after the attack helping clean up the dead remains of her close friend. But now, as the new season of “Grey’s Anatomy’s” was in early preparation, Elisabeth decided that the PTSD from the synagogue incident was too much for her to handle. She asked for a leave of absence to go into a trauma treatment center in Arizona, where she checked in under the name “Jo,” which was also the name of a character that Elisabeth Finch had been researching for a storyline on “Grey’s Anatomy.” She settled into her first few days of therapy, and that’s when she met a woman in her process group named Jennifer Beyer, the woman she fell in love with who will ultimately be responsible for Elisabeth’s catastrophic downfall.
