Will I Go Blind?
Living with Macular Degeneration

Noel Mansfield MSC

Back cover information:   While on Sabbatical in Ireland in 2007, Noel Mansfield was diagnosed with Macular Degeneration. As his eye disease has progressed over the years, he has also come to recognise that by telling his story, he may be able to support others with this condition.

In Will I Go Blind?, Noel shares his personal and honest experiences of what it is like to be diagnosed with the disability, the kinds of treatments available, the reactions of friends, the need to learn new skills in life and ministry, and especially how it is possible to lead a full life in the community.

The book is for those suffering from Macular Degeneration and for their families, friends and all of us to overcome that ignorance of the condition.

Noel Mansfield MSC is a Catholic priest and a Missionary of the Sacred Heart (MSC) whose ministry has been mostly in Secondary Education in colleges in Australia and Papua New Guinea.  He completed post-graduate education at Fordham University in New York and trained to be a Spiritual Director at Heart of Life Centre in Melbourne. He now lives in Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Parish, Henley Beach.
