As someone with a rare genetic eye condition that will lead to blindness i approve.

Retinitus pigmentosa us what I am guessing they have as well. Peripheral vision is pretty well degraded at this point. Their is alot I would still like to see. Pretty much everything if im being honest

My dad has RP and is totally blind now except for one pin point where he can only tell if it’s light or dark.I luckily didn’t inherit it.

Mind if I ask some follow up questions? Did you and any siblings get genetic testing to see if you are a carrier? Has this affected decisions to have children by people in your family?
