Summary
- Actor David Ramsey bravely shared his hidden fight with testicular cancer.
- He underwent surgery and chemotherapy, losing one testicle.
- Ramsey noticed a size difference in his testicles, leading to diagnosis.
Actor David Ramsey, known for his role in "Arrow," has disclosed a past private battle with testicular cancer. The 54-year-old actor shared on a recent podcast that he was diagnosed with the condition years earlier.
Ramsey underwent surgery and chemotherapy treatments to combat the cancer, which resulted in the loss of one testicle. He explained that his decision to keep the diagnosis private stemmed from his generally laid-back personality and a desire to keep certain aspects of his life private.
The actor first noticed an issue when one of his testicles was significantly smaller than the other, prompting him to consult a doctor. After a decade of monitoring, one testicle unexpectedly swelled to the size of his fist, leading to the discovery of cancer.
Ramsey found the chemotherapy experience challenging, particularly observing other patients, especially children, undergoing similar treatments. This experience has since instilled in him a greater sense of gratitude for his acting career and life in general.
