If you or someone you love has Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), the genetic condition that is passed down from one generation to the next, please keep reading. RP is not funny as it can be the cause of loss of vision, either in adults or children. Its effect on vision can be slow-moving or it can progress very quickly.

The author has been affected for over 30 years and understands the emotional toll this condition can have on the newly diagnosed. This book was written to shine a light on the humorous incidents that have happened (shared by the RP community), and hopefully help to educate the general public, friends, and loved ones on the humor that we see in our everyday lives. A vast majority of RP sufferers do not lose 100% of their vision.

I have done many of the the things it talks about in this book. If you know someone with RP I think it’s a good way to get a better understanding of their day to day. I have a ton of funny stories that could be added. It was nice to hear about people doing the same things I have. made me feel not as alone or less goofy. I don’t know how to explain it. It was great. Thanks for this

I had never heard of Retinitis Pigmentosa before listening to this book. Not only did I love this book because I was able to learn about a new genetic condition that I was unaware of, but the author's stories are hilarious. I love books that both educate and keep you engaged through humor.

Eye Opening Subject!

Not much is known about this rare, unannounced degenerative eye disease. But this book has methodologically brought out the awareness. The condition is humorously described in detail through a writing and narrative style which debits humor, ease, and calm. As stated in the title, the book indeed shows the lighter side of this incurable ailment although it is not funny because it can be the cause of loss of vision. My takeaway from this book is that we should always laugh at situations we can not control to ease the pain, rather than bemoan them. I recommend this book to all who are witnessing this health challenge, or anything close to it. We all need to display the lighter sides of our challenges.

Informative and Motivating.

I don't have Retinitis Pigmentosa, but I do have Glaucoma, so I empathise with anyone who has this condition. This wonderful audiobook takes a light-hearted view of how the author copes with the trials and tribulations of living with the condition. I cracked up at "A genital disease that causes blindness", lol. Some of the stories will have you laughing like a mad person. This is a great listen and if you have RP, I thoroughly recommend it.
