Beauty Influencer Jessica Pettway Dies of Cervical Cancer

Jessica Pettway, a 36-year-old beauty influencer known for her hair tutorials on YouTube, passed away on March 11 in a hospice facility in her hometown, Georgia after battling cervical cancer. Pettway, who leaves behind two kids and a husband, is considered one of the original YouTube influencers. After being misdiagnosed with fibroids for seven months, Pettway was hospitalized for extreme bleeding and abdominal pain that she referred to as “laborlike.” She was finally referred to an oncologist who diagnosed her with Stage 3 cervical cancer. (Black women are 41 percent more likely to develop cervical cancer than white women and are 75 percent more likely to die from it, according to the National Library of Medicine.) Pettway’s misdiagnosis is an unfortunate reminder of the countless ways the health-care system fails patients.
