When Sue’s vision declined 2 years ago, she began to investigate what research was being done into AMD specifically geographic atrophy which is what she has. She is within driving distance (90 miles) of Wills Eye Hospital and Dr. Carl Regillo who has conducted significant research in the study of AMD.

Sue says she’s had a few days where she wasn’t “up to par”. She’s done some research on self-compassion which has led her to conclude “What it boils down to is this: see yourself for what you are, accept yourself, be your own best friend and remember, we are on…
