We received a story today from a Retinoblastoma survivor named Meredith. We hope her words will bring comfort to others who are currently battling Retinoblastoma. Here is Meredith’s story:
Dr. Jerry Shields saved my life!
I was 22 months when I was diagnosed with unilateral Retinoblastoma. It was thanks to Dr. Jerry Shields that I am alive and still have my eye. He saved my life and thanks to him I was able to become a teacher, get married, and have two beautiful healthy boys. The work that is done at Wills are truly miracles!
I have been trying to find someone like me that had unilateral RB with thier real eye. I would love to have some support and someone else like me to talk to. I am 34 years old and live in KY. Could someone give meredith my info?
