An OM Legacy - Bobby’s story told by daughter, Jennifer Welborn
Manage episode 391021307 series 3530258
A Cure in Sight, an ocular melanoma foundation, is joined by guest, Jennifer Welborn, from Richmond, VA. She is daughter of Bobby Welborn, a patient who valiantly fought OM until July of 2023 when he passed.
She has dedicated her participation in the All American and Mrs. All American Pageants, directed by Patricia Sullivan, to her father’s legacy, and conveys a level of advocacy we are proud to bear witness to, and have her support in.
With her crowning as All American International, she has planned for her year’s appointment to serve an immense purpose: Sharing far and wide the news of ocular melanoma, and shedding light on the inconsistencies in patient care, the struggles of patients day to day, and all in all giving omies around the world a VOICE.
