I always felt guilty about unknowingly passing the RP gene onto my son, but on that day, I hit rock bottom. I swallow despite the acid in my throat. “You told Ellie about that?” He nods. Mierda.1 Is that why Ellie didn’t want to tell me about Nico’s worsening vision? Was she trying to save me from further embarrassing myself? God. I’m ashamed and disgusted with myself for appearing so damn weak in front of both of them.
