A cure in sight is joined by Paige Thompson, in an interview about her 4 year plus journey so far with Ocular Melanoma. After being told she was too young to need her eyes dilated, Paige scratched her left eye. This thankfully led to her ophthalmologist dilating both eyes and eventually referring her to further specialists who diagnosed her with Ocular Melanoma in July of 2017, at the age of 27. She shares that her biggest gifts in this journey have been presence with her life now, the people she’s met along the way, and the ability to focus on what she can control, and let the rest happen as it happens. In her words, take the trip, get the dog--and GET DILATED! Favorite Song: Brave by Sara Bareilles Sara Bareilles - Brave (Official Video)
