In Spite of My Eyes is an inspiring story of a man named Paul Funnell, born with Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), a degenerative disorder of the retina which has rendered him legally blind. From an early age he had an unshakable desire to live a normal life and become a successful businessman. His life, however, has been a continual struggle, with the need to come to terms with his situation and develop strategies to compensate for his disability.
Despite the obvious challenges, Paul always believed his ability to succeed in life was without limitations and that he could achieve anything if he wanted it enough. During his teenage years, he chose to be the architect of his life and overcame adversity to realize his dreams and achieve his goals.
Paul takes us on a journey that will cause the reader to run the gamut of emotions from laughter to tears. His story will inspire people with disabilities; motivate those climbing the corporate ladder and offers valuable insights for parents and other carers of disabled children.
Paul Funnell’s life story will give you an insight into living with RP, and will challenge you to dream your dreams and make them happen. Along the way when you have some laughs at his expense he will consider it a compliment.
