DAN & MICHAEL

Dan & MIchael are identical twins who both have the rare eye condition Leber's Optic Neuropathy, which resulted in them losing their sight within a matter of weeks.
Firstly Michael lost over 90 per cant of his sight whilst he was in his first year studying to be a doctor.
Then less than a year later his brother Dan experienced the same loss of sight during his second year studying aeronautical engineering.

Michael took part in the London 2012 Paralympic Games playing football and now the twins have their sights set on Rio playing blind tennis.

They were being interviewed today by Peter White for a festive edition of our radio programme In Touch.

You read it here first.

And I just have to add that they are both the most cool and talented guys I've met in a long time.
So good to meet you both today.
