Blindness A world that both horrifies and fascinates. Imagine you
find your eyes aren't working quite right one day. You think you
need glasses. Instead, over the next few months, while you lose
your vision daily, you discover it is caused by a defect in your
mitochondrial DNA. It is hereditary. There is no cure and no way to
stop your vision loss. There is no way to predict how much sight
you will lose. You could be anywhere from visually impaired to
total darkness. You are the first one in your family to be effected
so you had no idea this could happen. Typically you are a male at
your prime -late teens to early 20's. But, you can be any age or
any sex. In this collaboration you will meet a skydiver, lawyer,
athlete, sailor, world golf champion, musicians, one who defied
death 3 times, people desperate to try anything for a cure, and
potentially the first and only person in the world ever cured.
There is humor, despair, joy, and the spirit of human nature
conquering extreme adversity. Even you may have been born with this
genetic bomb - so Welcome to our World.
