ocular melanoma in teenager

by mamabuterfly, Apr 10, 2008 02:28PM

My 16 yr. old daughter was diagnosed in november 07 with ocular melanoma (chordial tumor)
She had radiation therapy and is doing well, she has alot of questions about other teenagers with this cancer.
Does any one know of a website or support group for teenagers?

This discussion is related to Teenager with sudden, periodic loss of vision..

Consider calling WIll's Eye Hospital in Philadelphia, PA - they should be able to help lead you in the right direction.
