Alex Ramirez is a colon cancer survivor. When he started feeling fatigued more than usual, he sought medical attention.
That doctor visit resulted in a blood test, which led to a colonoscopy, which revealed a cancerous tumor in Alex’s colon, and a diagnosis of Stage Two colon cancer. Following surgery, Alex had to wear an ostomy bag, and faced additional surgery when three times the procedure resulted in infection.
Thankfully, Alex went into remission and through a reversal procedure was able to get the ostomy bag removed. He wants to make himself available to anyone who has non-medical questions about their cancer journey.
