A Canadian family-of-six has embarked on a year-long trip around the world before daughter, 12, and sons, seven and five, lose their vision due to a rare genetic condition.The parents found out their eldest Mia Lemay-Pelletier had retinis pigmentosa — which could leave her blind by her 30s — after she started struggling to see in the evenings in 2018. The next year her brothers Colin and Laurent were diagnosed with the same disease, but second-born Leo got the all clear.Mother Edith Lemay, who works in finance in Quebec where the family is based, said when the brothers were diagnosed it was the catalyst moment for a world trip to fill their brains with 'visual memories' before their sight deteriorated.
