Rochelle’s Story

My name is Rochelle. I was told I have Stargardt’s at the age of 4. I am now 29, married with two children.

I am able to drive with restrictions of daylight only and 30 mph streets. Thankfully we live in a small town and everything I need is closeby.

My parents had four children and three of us have Stargardt’s! very srange!! My little sister, now 20, has the more severe impairment. My brother has the least amount of impairment.

I was happy to find this site and read about others with Stargardt’s and to be able to relate the everyday frustrations.
