Re: Back to Wills Eye on Tuesday...

Back from Wills today. News about the eye itself was pretty good. The radiation has shrunk the tumor to half it's size, macula is healthy, there is little fluid and vision is barely affected (for now). The central vision will go by 18 months, and of course the main worry is still the possibility of mets. See the uveal malanoma oncologist in Philly on May 1. I'm really hoping that I will qualify for adjuvant therapy. Tired and ready to sleep in my own bed and eat home cooking! Thanks for your prayers, ladies.

I survived a laser procedure to the retina and an injection of

avastin into my eye. No pleasant, but doable.
