In this impactful interview, Jillian Comstock sits down with Eavan O’Neill, a marathon runner who was diagnosed with a form of vision impairment just months before the COVID-19 pandemic rocked the world. She shares how her diagnosis and the pandemic resulted in the hardest year of her life, but running eventually helped her heal and become an inspiration for so many with vision impairment. Throughout this we highlight: • How Eavan O’Neill used running as a coping mechanism for her Stargardt’s disease diagnosis. • How Eavan navigated the emotional toll of a recent health diagnosis at the same time the COVID-19 pandemic changed the world. • The stereotypes Eavan had to overcome in navigating her journey with progressive blindness. • Eavan’s support group, Brightside, which is helping others live full, rich, and beautiful lives.
