The message
from "MC Emily" contains these words:

Thanks, Sarah. I thought I'd heard that I should do that. Will I be able
to grow the sucker into a tree and, if so, how do I do it?

You can, but it's not likely to be worthwhile, and may not even have
fruit at all.

The stem/trunk and suckers are just a vigorous rootstock to provide lots
of sap to feed the (hopefully) large crop of big cherries that its own
roots wouldn't support.
