Episode 70: Kelly Forester - Wet MD

Kelly speaks with openness and wisdom about living with a condition that is not life-threatening, but deeply life-altering – wet age-related macular degeneration (Wet MD). From the shock of her first diagnosis to the reality of ongoing eye injections, she offers a candid look into the emotional, physical, and practical challenges of losing central vision. She shares a down-to-earth approach to adapting to her new condition, reflecting on the balance between what we can and cannot control, the importance of medical research, and the need for more compassionate health insurance systems. Her story is not just about vision loss – it is about perspective and finding peace in the journey.

The song that Kelly selected is Time by Lauren Daigle and Aodhan King.
