Description
Focus: A Memoir by Ingrid Ricks Ingrid Ricks' powerful memoir reveals the shocking moment she was told at age thirty-seven that she had an incurable degenerative eye disease, and how it changed her life forever. The diagnosis of Retinitis Pigmentosa sent her into a world of fear and uncertainty, as she struggled to come to terms with losing her independence and facing the possibility of blindness. As Ricks embarks on an eight-year journey of self-discovery, she faces numerous challenges, including a trip to South Africa to write about AIDS orphans, a confrontation with her husband, and a life-changing lesson from her daughters. Through these experiences, she learns to re-evaluate what truly matters in life and finds a way to fix her eyes - not just physically, but also emotionally. Ultimately, Focus is a story of resilience and hope, as Ricks discovers that even in the darkest moments, there is always the possibility for transformation and renewal.
