I’m still alive for those…

I’m still alive for those who might remember my name. I am also one who gave this team not much chance. I thought 8-4 and even after the MSU loss thought they had one or two more losses. I’ll gladly sit in the corner, eat my words, and just STFU and enjoy this moment for an amazing team. So many bad streaks wiped out, a lot of them show up in those infographics - 0 and whatever versus (fill in team), this many years since (fill in the blank). Great season! Go Blue!

I’m okay with it. Found out…

I’m okay with it. Found out about mine in 2014. Choroideremia is what I have. Because it is a slow progression of loss I am able to plan ahead. So that makes things easier. 
 

XM - I have lots of support right now so I’m good. I do appreciate the gesture though. I do go to Kellogg Eye Center because they are the absolute best. They get me pointed towards resources I need. 

I’m doing better. Still…

I’m doing better. Still legally blind and there isn’t a cure. Progressive vision loss. Also, my ex had an affair with a coworker and left me. I’ve been sorting out how life will be for me without the ability to drive. There are some really great resources out there. I’m going to be ok.

I think there is reason to be cautious with expectations. You’ve pointed out a few and those things are hard to ignore. I am happy about this addition because it adds some depth. The unreasonable side of me also has some data here to think this might work out really well.

Money is being raised to…

Money is being raised to fund research for gene therapy, which is thought to be a potential cure for Hunter Syndrome, at projectalive.org. There is also a gofundme page at www.gofundme.com/projectalive. As of the writing of this article, the page has raised $2,268,810 with a goal of reaching $2.5 million.

I have choroideremia, which is a rare genetic disorder.  Gene therapy research is ongoing for my disease as well.  Like Hunter Syndrome, my disease is progressive.  The progression of my disease will result in total blindness.  Like Hunter Syndrome, we do our own fundraising as well.  I have volunteered for the trials that are taking place with gene therapy, but have not been accepted to one yet.  One trial wanted someone with poor acuity and one wanted participants with less central vision.  I have approximately 5 degrees of central vision remaining.

I didn’t like the way they recruited me, showed fake love. I visited there like four or five times.

He goes on to talk about being strung along and never getting the offer they were promising him.  Some of the players talk about being upset that they weren't shown any interest until their sophomore year.  Yikes.
