Description
In this session, Anne helps patients and caregivers work through the process of being “in the waiting room." An OM diagnosis is chalk full of uncertainty. Anne walks patients and caregivers alike through the processing and caring of ourselves in this state of limbo.
Anne Osborn, author, grew up in the shadows of OM when her mother died of OM. Forty years later, she, was diagnosed with OM, Class 2. She spent her career in human services and trained as a psychotherapist. Her specialties include initially being a children’s therapist specializing in needs impacting the ability to learn in education and she is currently a retired marriage and family therapist. Simultaneously she began leading an emergency team for law enforcement and fire personnel over nearly three decades, ‘when bad things happen to them, we go in’. She manages her stress with long distances, both in running and bicycling, though now, as a Master Gardener, much time is spent in Nature. Her passions outside of family and friends include travel, writing, and being of service. Her book, Coping with Ocular Melanoma: A Toolbox is published and available for purchase at the store. All proceeds from her book go directly to patient care.
