In May of 2016, my optometrist, after a number of years of watching, said that the nevus on my right retina had begun to change.  Even with the odds of one out of six million his concern was that it might be developing melanoma.  Following a second opinion I went to a retina specialist who confirmed the fear.  With the diagnoses I was sent to the Hamilton Eye Institute in Memphis for treatment.  Throughout the time I posted a blog sharing my thoughts, focusing on my Christian faith and the strength it provided.   See...
