This disease sucks. Some days I feel like my vision hasn’t gotten worse and others, well I know it has. For the past 10 years, i’ve “dealt” with failing vision. I assume a lot of things. I know that the sky is blue, I know that the trees are green and I know my home […]
Today, which happens to be Valentines Day of 2018, I was greeted with a loving card from my beautiful wife. Now, that isn’t really that abnormal on this holiday, however, my favorite part of the card was that my wife found a card that I could actually read without my magnifying glass or digital magnifier.

Just a couple of weeks ago, we attended my yearly appointment with my Retinal Specialist. The day comes every year and it’s not looked forward to. I had been preparing myself for the day for months in advance and whether or not that is helpful is arguable. I worry, I fret and I constantly prepare […]

It’s been some time since i’ve had the time to update. With our baby Lyla at home, our amazing 4 year old and a business to run, time has been a bit stretched thin. Well a lot, it’s been really stretched thin. As all stages of life, there are points where you have to grab […]
On Friday, June 8th, 2018, our 2nd daughter, Lyla Drew Ogg came rushing into this world like a tornado. Mom delivered in a record time (for us) and both Lyla and my wife are doing absolutely amazing. Due to the speed of the delivery, our “birth plan” went flying out the window, however, we […]
Three months after receiving the news that I had Retinitis Pigmentosa, my wife and I had a discussion about adding another head to our family. With so much uncertainty in front of us with my failing vision, it seemed absolutely crazy to add another child to our family. In fact, it is INSANE. So […]
Every once in a while the internet delivers. My wife found this video when we first were diagnosed and I could barely watch it then, it was still so new and this video seemed like a preview of what our lives held. It’s still impossible to watch this now without the tears coming down, but […]
