    The reason why we struggle with insecurity is because we compare our behind the scenes with everyone else’s highlight reel

    This is so true and something I struggle with a lot. New Years is one of the hardest times  for me mentally as I hate all the pressure of feeling you have to have…

About Me

About Me

Hi and welcome to my page! My name is Katie, I was officially diagnosed with Stargardts Macular Dystrophy on 29th September 2017 at the age of 32; but I’m not letting that stop me, in fact it has helped me to live a better life. I adore travelling and seeing new places, make up, clothes, Disney and anything girly 💜. I am a wife, a mum to a gorgeous little boy and have 4 fur babies - 3 fluffy cats and a Labrador. My aim in life now, is to help others understand vision loss and to end the ignorance that surrounds it -X-
