Light of Mine (2011)
Excellent portrayal of dealing with devastating prognosis!
My husband and I were very excited to learn of and to be able to attend "Light of Mine". We were especially surprised to learn that the film directly addressed LHON, Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy--the same affliction my husband and his brother both have. Although my husband and his brother both lost most of their sight before they were married/while still living at home with their parents, this film still addressed some of the emotion I have dealt with being the spouse of someone who is legally blind/having lost their sight. The amazing range of emotions those involved face, as well as the possible visual affect taking place for the afflicted, were competently addressed. Being a fully-sighted individual, the scenery of Yellowstone was breathtaking (having been there before, the varied landscapes and wildlife were vivid reminders of what I experienced)! We so appreciated the attention to detail put into this movie. Thank you, and we look forward to it coming out in more venues and on more media in the near future.
