Cancer survivor Vantrille Patterson is grateful the colorectal cancer screening guidelines were lowered to age 45 in 2021. She was screened and diagnosed with colorectal cancer last year at age 47.
“If the screening age was still 50, I would have had to wait three years to qualify to get screened. The cancer would have been much worse by then and harder to treat.”
She hopes her story can inspire others to get screened. “The earlier you detect [cancer], the better chance you have of treating it. A screening can save your life.”
