Slipping into Darkness

from Mission Unstoppable Hosted by Frankie Picasso

Join the Unstoppable Frankie Picasso and author Michael Merrett whose terrifying account of his life is a testament to what being Unstoppable is all about. What would you do if you had a hereditary timebomb ticking inside of you slowly taking away your eyesight? My guest today, Michael Merrett tells his true story of how he and his 5 brothers were each affected by a disease that took away their eyesight. As children they all wore cokebottle glasses but as they became young adults, their vision gradually diminished until they eventually became legally blind. This is a story of courage, humor and grace and how lives were affected and dramatically altered by a debilitating disease. Michel Merrett shows us how Unstoppable he truly is.
