Most people blind from birth, that's the only life they've known.

They're good, like they're happy as they are.

That's the life they know.

Whereas a lot of people who go blind over time or through a traumatic accident,

They know the other side.

So often in that grieving process, they do want their vision back.

So it's a huge spectrum.

They were so relieved.

When I went to them and said, I don't want to fundraise anymore.

I don't want to be a part of the narrative that disabled people need to be cured through medical intervention.

They were like, thank God.

Because they felt like I was under so much pressure to change.

And when I told them I'm okay as I am,

They were like, good, because you are.

Like, we think you're good enough as you are.

But we thought our job as good parents was to help you be cured because that's what society told us.

And if you feel like you're happy as you are, we're happy for you.

Right, and the difference is my disease isn't fatal.

I'm not gonna die from being blind.

Nothing's gonna negatively happen if I don't treat myself.
