From Rotoworld:
Derrek Lee said Friday that his daughter has Leber's Congenital Amaurosis, a rare genetic disease that causes blindness in young children.
Lee has teamed with Boston Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck, whose son is one of only about 3,000 people in the United States with the disease, to start a foundation with the intention of finding a cure. 3-year-old Jada Lee has lost vision in one eye because of the disease. "Jada is a little bit different in the respect that she still sees very well out of one eye. So it's kind of throwing them off a little bit," Lee said. "But you know we look at it as a positive. We just ask that everyone continue to pray for the miracle, that she continue to have good sight out of the one eye. We're still believing that can happen."

Awful news to hear. I wish them luck in finding a cure.

I would totally freak without my vision. No more sports watching and all that good stuff. This is bad news.
