Dominique’s story is part of a larger, alarming trend. Colorectal cancer is now the leading cause of cancer death in men under 50 and the second-leading in women under 50. One in five new cases occurs in people under 55—a number that’s doubled in recent decades.
Common symptoms include:
Blood in or on stool
Persistent abdominal pain
Unexplained weight loss
Fatigue
Changes in bowel habits
Dominique’s husband, Sean, has been by her side throughout. Their love story, which began shortly after her diagnosis, adds emotional weight to her advocacy. A fundraiser for her care has received overwhelming support.
Her powerful message remains: cancer doesn’t care about age. Early detection saves lives. Listen to your body. Speak up. Take action.
