Melanoma in my right eye

I have uveal melanoma of the right eye. I had brachytherapy with Dr. Lauren Dalvin at Mayo Rochester almost two years ago. I see Dr. Basel Williams of Bascom Palmer each month for a shot and testing in FL in the winter. Both doctors are the best! I will continue my monthly shot at the Retina Consultants of MN during the summer months. They have been excellent in coordinating my appointments.
My eye cancer was discovered while I was being treated for lymphoma at Mayo Rochester.
Just to let you know life goes on and all is well…I thank God for each new day.

@pamela76: thank you for sharing your encouraging news and treatment! May I ask if the shot you're receiving is Avastin? If not, what is it and is it uncomfortable?
