MOTHER’S DAY DRAWING CONTEST 2016

By Renata Sarno, BCM Families Foundation President

I’d like to thank all the participants of the 2016 Drawing Contest. We received many drawings. Each of them is beautiful and well done.
Particularly we would like to thank the youngest child, Neil, who did a very nice drawing with his mom. We will send him a blue cap.
Moreover William and John Adam received the vote of the expert teacher Valentina and will each receive a blue cap.
Ezra’s drawings were really appreciated, especially his beautiful Magic Railroad. He wins a blue cap.
Micky’s excellent realistic drawings show a well-rounded person who enjoys history (intellectual/mind) as well as water polo (physical/body). He wins a blue cap.
Second place is a tie between Van and Alexander. Each of them wins a white cap, plus a pink cap for mom.

And finally (« drumroll »)….

the Winner of the 2016 Drawing Contest is Oscar!! He wins a pink cap and a pink bag for his mother and a blue cap for him!

WINNER: Oscar

Rare Disease Day – 29 February 2016

Dear BCM Families,

This year, February 29th will be Rare Disease Day! BCM Families Foundation would love YOU to participate in this international coalition of various events.

BCM is poorly known amongst physicians because it is too rare, and it often takes years to arrive at an accurate diagnosis. Also, the confirmatory genetic testing is not widely utilized, leaving patients with uncertain diagnosis and treatment options.

We would like to ask each and every one of you to meet with your local healthcare professionals including ophthalmologists, low vision specialists, primary doctors, or pediatricians to educate them about BCM.

Nearby children’s hospitals with an ophthalmology department may be the best place to reach out and help raise awareness about BCM.

Please print the attached flyer and share it with healthcare professionals you know and meet.

Together, we can reach more than 150 hospitals around the world in the same day!
Everyone participating during the Rare Disease Day has the potential to initiate awareness and bring about a better quality of life for their family members affected by BCM.

Thank you for your commitment to the mission of the BCM Families Foundation and help in pushing for a cure of BCM.
