“I’ve seen this article go around before, but something about tonight really f****** p***** me off. It was triggering. I tried to report it [but] there’s nothing I can do. I just feel helpless. I’m so mad right now.”<\/p>\n
Katie then asked for help in fighting the deceptive content. She added: “Like, if anyone works at Facebook [or] has any suggestion on what I can do, please tell me.”<\/p>\n
In another Story post, she wrote: “[I’m] still here. FB is just constant clickbait. Please report these people. They suck! ! This is so triggering.” The following day, however, Katie chose to poke fun at the false rumors by posting a satirical ad for a casket business, quipping she was “up here chilling with God.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In the playful video posted to Instagram, she quipped: “It’s me on the other side. I do just want to shout out Facebook for letting my friends, family, myself know that I have passed on. Just want to let you know things are good. Life is great up here.”<\/p>\n
Earlier this month, the 34 year old star revealed she’ll require lifelong treatment. She shared: “I wanted to give an update on my latest chapter as someone experiencing [and] navigating stage IV breast cancer.<\/p>\n
“The thing that people don’t realize with stage IV is I will be on medication for the rest of life. It’s kind of like a maintenance plan, which is great but also can be scary.”<\/p>\n
Since the cancerous spots on her liver appear to have “disappeared on its own”, Katie intends to proceed with her double mastectomy if her forthcoming scans deliver encouraging news.<\/p>\n
She disclosed: “In November, I have scheduled my double mastectomy. Things are working so far and we’re adjusting.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
