Bryce Ramsey says a cancer diagnosis at 34 changed the course of her life and has driven her to help others, according to a Facebook post linking to a University of Mississippi Medical Center article. Ramsey, a nurse and former Mrs. Mississippi Plus, is now cancer-free and is raising awareness about colorectal cancer and the importance of screening.
Colorectal cancer is often more treatable when detected early. Medical experts and public health organizations encourage screening because it can find cancer at an earlier, more manageable stage and can detect precancerous growths before they develop into cancer.
Ramsey’s experience combines her clinical background and public profile, and she is using that platform to promote prevention and early detection. Her story of resilience and advocacy highlights how a personal diagnosis can prompt broader public-health efforts and encourage others to talk with their providers about screening options.
The Facebook post directs readers to a University of Mississippi Medical Center article for Ramsey’s full account. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
