The Power of a Treatment Buddy | The Eye Believe Podcast

In this episode of the Eye Believe Podcast, we’re joined by Brianne Ward and Bev Shaw, two ocular melanoma patients from Canada whose connection turned into something truly powerful.   After first meeting online, Brianne and Bev later found themselves as roommates during treatment—a full-circle moment that strengthened their bond and helped them navigate one of the most challenging parts of their journey together.   In this heartfelt conversation, they share: -How they first connected within the OM community -What it was like to go through treatment side by side -How their friendship helped them prepare for and get through difficult moments -Why having a support person—or “treatment buddy”—can make such a difference   Their story is a powerful reminder that connection matters, and that no one has to go through this journey alone. We hope this episode inspires you to reach out, find your people, and lean on the strength of community. 💙
