They have yet to do any biopsies. Two appointments ago (June) they mentioned wanting to do a biopsy. Last week they did ultrasounds and used various machines to take photos of his eye. When they were doing the ultrasound, they were having a really difficult time to find the lesion since it flattened out so much.…Read more

I made a post back in June. I have a small update.

This past Thursday I made the drive up to St. Louis to Washington University with my dad for his appointment. For the past several months we’ve driven up there for them to do the same tests over and over. Finally they gave the diagnosis that it is likely my dad has ocular melanoma…Read more

Really, really good tip! Thank you!

Your positive words have helped my spirits today! I really appreciate it. I will hopefully have an update with some substantial information.

He’s not the greatest at communicating clearly. From what I have gathered from his first appointment to get his eye looked at for the detached retina, his first doctor saw a black mass that he thought looked to be cancer. He told my dad to go to an…Read more

If I need to delete my post I will. Sorry I bothered all of you.

He eventually went to the eye doctor and they saw that not only did he have a detached retina, but he also had a mass show up during their check up. I’m not entirely sure what was done since I wasn’t there for the appointment. They were concerned that it was cancer and suggested…Read more
