ATLANTA BLACK shares that Roslyn's plight began in 2013 before she met Ray. The cancer was subdued after treatment but returned aggressively in 2019, a year after she got married. While speaking with WSCO, Roslyn recalled:

"I wasn't expecting for it to come back, because I was young, and I was taking care of myself. I don't eat pork. I was, like, 'I'm doing good.'"

Despite all of these, the Navy Veteran keeps up a positive outlook, and her hubby is also determined to stay true to her through the ordeal. Ray revealed to the news outlet:

"I told my pastor and God in front of a lot of people, I'm with her through sickness and health, and this is just a part of that."

Roslyn decided to take cancer as a form of blessing and her own way of being an inspiration to people that, no matter the challenges, things would work out fine.
