Open My Eyes

Once a competitive marathon runner, Dr. Peter Powers suddenly went blind and was dying of kidney failure. He was only 34 years old, and his devastating loss of health was due to complications of type 1 diabetes. Find out how he healed and survived in his inspirational book, Open My Eyes. Told with humor and insight, his compelling stories of coping with diabetes as a 14-year-old-then as a runner, medical student, and family doctor-pull the reader into a world of personal tragedy, triumph, and transformation. Dr. Powers' story of self-care and healing has been widely shared and applauded in personal development seminars, hospitals, and community centers. Now it is finally available in his book.
