Ocular Melanoma Awareness Eye Patch Day

In December 2013, I was diagnosed with Ocular Melanoma. I was lucky and my tumor's size decreased rapidly. Whilethe initial tumor is nearly always treatable, 50% of patients will develop fatal metastases.
Every year since my diagnosis, I raise money for OM on Eye Patch Day. This year I have chosenA Cure In Sight'sOMGcular Melanoma Getaway!
Through donations of vacation homes, timeshares, airline miles and money, A Cure In Sight issending families of metastatic patients on vacations to get a break from ocular melanoma and make memories that will last. Due to the current treatments there is hope for a cure for ocular melanoma but currently there is no cure. Patients are going through trials that have many negative side effects. The treatments are extremely rough on the patients and the families that care for them. These are usually the memories families are left with. A Cure In Sightwants to change that. They want to send every family on a vacation to recuperate, rest and relaxfrom the daily strain of fighting advanced ocular melanoma. With your help of a donation we can make this happen.
