For four years, doctors told Laura Landry-Rudolph the growing and painful rash on her inner thigh was “chafing” or perhaps “eczema.”

And for four years, Landry-Rudolph insisted something much more serious was going on.

In an emotional Facebook live video last month, the 32-year-old from Antigonish, N.S., shared that a dermatologist’s biopsy had finally revealed cancer.

Speaking to Global News, Landry-Rudolph said she wanted to share her story so that others know to speak out if they notice something wrong with their bodies.

“You know your body, you trust your gut. And my message, simply, is you have to advocate for yourself and be persistent in getting the answers that you deserve,” she said.

Megan King has her story.
