NEW BICSI CREDENTIAL HOLDERS
CONGRATULATIONS! YOUR HARD WORK PAID OFF!
C OM M U N I T Y C O R N E R
I have been asked several times why I joined the BICSI Cares
committee. There are two reasons that I chose this committee. My
employer gave me the option to participate in a committee, and BICSI
Cares needed volunteers at the time. The main, and most important
reason is that my wife and I have a "special-needs" child. She was
born with cerebral palsy and even though she has CP, we are blessed
that it did not make her fully debilitated. If you do not have a child
with a disability or know someone who does, it is hard to explain
what takes place every day for the child and their parents. At the time
she was born and while she was growing up, there wasn't any outside
support that we were aware of where we lived. It was a trying time for
my wife and myself, as well as our daughter.
