Summary
When Miss Kay Robertson was a young girl, her grandmother told her one day she might have to fight for her marriage. That seemed crazy to Miss Kay's young ears, but her grandmother was right. Long before Phil and Kay Robertson and their sons, Willie, Jase, Jep, and Alan became famous for making duck calls and the television show Duck Dynasty, Phil and Kay lived through ten hard years. The story of those early years is being told in a movie called The Blind. Phil and Kay started a family and married as teenagers. While Phil was in college, he began drinking. Soon he was an alcoholic, staying out all night, leaving Kay to raise their three sons. Everyone Kay knew told her to leave him. She knew if he was ever going to change, it would take a miracle.
