Joan's story
Why include us in your Will
My experience of macular disease began with my mother. She was born in 1899 and was in her seventies when she began having vision problems. One day she woke up blind in one eye, and maybe a few days or weeks later, she woke up blind in the other. It was pretty sudden.
At the time – it was the 1970s – nobody said it was macular disease because I don’t think they knew for certain. But it was. And of course there wasn’t any treatment in those days.
