A Cure in Sight is joined by Ashlely McCrary, a patient with Ocular Melanoma who is part of the Auburn, Alabama grouping of patients.
Ashley shares her journey with ocular melanoma, beginning with her diagnosis in 2012 at age 42. She has been a constant and passionate advocate for raising funds to research the cause of ocular melanoma, cast light on this rare disease, and advocate for research for a cure!
Despite being diagnosed with mets last year, Ashley brings hope to the journey of fighting metastatic ocular melanoma and shares her journey with the Prame clinical trial which is still currently ongoing.
She shares the process of becoming a member of this trial, as well as her current results in her cohort of the trial.
We are so thankful for her courage and continued fight to live life fully!
“May we all embrace those "near life experiences" and not take any of it for granted” Ashley McCrary
