My daughter Emma is an 18-year old young lady with a developmental disability, and over the last few years my wife and I have been focusing on where and how she will live when she leaves our home. I founded ECC to create the living environment we want for Emma but could not find.
Emma lived in the hospital’s Special Care Nursery for 2½ months after she was born, and we fed her through a tube for another 2 years after she came home. She has a rare genetic condition which impacts her physically, cognitively and emotionally, and parenting is still a daily challenge.
Lauren and I have been stubbornly working to cure Emma’s condition since she was born. I received a degree in Biological Sciences before law school, and Lauren earned a Ph.D. in psychology. We thought we were as equipped as anyone, intellectually and financially, to facilitate some treatment or cure for Emma. I spent countless hours in the library of the local medical school, asked friends to help fund research and learned about orphan drugs and the FDA. Lauren teamed with other parents to create and operate a non-profit organization to fund international research on Emma’s condition. And while we’re both pleased about the important progress that’s been made, we realized Emma is not likely to be cured soon. So, again, we got busy.
