Daughter and Struggles
Jake Tapper’s daughter, Alice, was hospitalized in late 2021 due to a misdiagnosed case of appendicitis.
Alice experienced stomach pain, chills, vomiting, and a low fever. Doctors initially dismissed appendicitis because her pain wasn’t in the typical location.
After several days and worsening symptoms, a proper diagnosis was made. Her appendix had perforated and required emergency surgery.
