Richie has a genetic condition called Wolfram Syndrome. The main symptom is a progressive optic atrophy that results in partial loss of sight in Richie's case. In conjunction with the loss of sight, he developed Charles Bonnet Syndrome, which causes his brain to see images that are not there, also known as hallucinations. Richie shares his journey with both syndromes and the loss of sight that has led him to purchase a white cane shortly before the interview. We talk about his involvement with the Glaucoma community and how important it is for him and others to share about their condition. 

The song selected by Richie is The Distance by Cake.
