Stargardt's Disease

0 Recommendations

My 9 year old son has recently been diagnosed with Stargardts Disease. After being told for 2 years that his perceived vision loss was psychological and attention seeking, we sought another opinion and found out he is now losing his sight (they estimate within 2 years) and there is no cure or treatment. We are devastated. At the same time, I can appreciate it's not the worse thing that can happen and he does not get sick from this disease he just can't see well.

I have diagnosed with Stargardts Disease since I was 7 years old. It never was an eassy life for me, but thankfully my boy firend and my family's support, I have gotten to manage my life as an low vision.
One thing that I can tell is I have never been a strong and motivated individual that I am today, without having Stargardt's Disease.
